Though I’ve read not to post a guide about how to rip Music from Deezer, I figured it was necessary, in the hope that people won’t abuse the ability to rip music from Deezer. Deezer, a service I wrote an earlier post about, allows you to upload and share your mp3 music. They have already many albums on their site and the list continues to grow.

Update: Users have report that this rip music to deezer guide doesn’t work for everyone, try this updated guide (here)

What happens when you upload your music and your computer crashed? You need to rip it off Deezer (a completely legal reason to use this method to rip Deezer music).

How to Rip Music from Deezer
1. First of all, you need Firefox.
After getting Firefox

1. Install DownloadHelper add-on and restart Firefox.
2. Open ‘Customize Toolbar’ dialog, find the icon for DownloadHelper and drag it onto the toolbar at the top.
3. Right click on the icon -> Preferences -> MediaReq tab -> add ‘php’ as a supported extension.
4. Go to deezer.com, play a song that you want to download, and you should see DownloadHelper’s icon being animated (spinning) now.
5. Click on the down arrow on the icon (not on the icon itself), then click on cacheDiffusion.php and in the Save file dialog, name it to whatever.mp3.

Special things to consider
Note that it is not possible to download more than one song (like all the songs in a playlist) at a time from this site.
When saving music, save it as “Your Filename”.mp3. You need the .mp3 extension so that your computer will recognize that it is as a music file.

Tips if it doesn’t work
If your download is blank. Try navigating away from the Deezer page and going back to your song, it usually works on the second time you visit the webpage.

Don’t Abuse Deezer
Those who abuse this, would be stealing tons and tons of music from a nice website.

I figured what better way to find Free Music on Google than directly on Click for Nick dot Com. Using a little thievery, I’ve made it possible to search through Google’s music right on this site.

Use the search button below to find music thats been stored on Google.

I just happened to run across this free music service called Deezer. At first I figured, they probably don’t offer that much, just a few songs to listen for free, big deal right? After further consideration, I’ve learned that they offer a whole lot more.

Listen to full Albums Free
Deezer has a good selection of music. After I searched for Moby, I was able to stream the entire album right from the website without signing up. Granted they don’t have every album, but the selection is large enough for me not to complain. It was hard finding an artist they don’t have a full album for.

Limitations
Though you can listen to entire music albums for free, you can’t download anything. As long as you have an internet connection, you won’t really need to. Just create a playlist and have easy access to the music whenever you need it.

The only other complaint I have with Deezer is it’s player. It seems to skip at after about one minute into the song. It’s as if it has trouble loading the entire song.

Getting Started
Visit the website, Deezer.com, and start your search.

The Smashing Pumpkins did it with their unsigned album Machina II, The Offspring intended to release a free album back in the days of Napster, and now Radiohead has released their newest album In Rainbows completely free on the internet.
Completely Free?
Basically Radiohead has decided that you can decide how much you want to pay for their new album In Rainbows. On their official site, it will bring you to checkout point at which the price will say ?. There you fill in the price. If you put $0. That is perfectly fine. Is it worth the download? Definitely, but don’t expect their music to be as good as their previous albums.

Duped by the Free Radiohead album In Rainbows Sound Quality?
Fans have suggested that they have been duped with the 160 kbps download quality that Radiohead has released the songs in. 192 kbps is considered the minimal sound quality anyone would want with mp3s. Anything less is considered minimal and basically the free Radiohead album In Rainbow, should not be paid for at all.

Overall the album is great for a listen. If you care so much about the sound quality, wait for the album to come out, but if you want to hear the album now. Visit this site and download the album.
