Motorola is releasing its first full QWERTY keyboard slider called the Motorola Hint QA30. No word yet on what carrier may be carrying the device but many people are speculating that it will be either Verizon or Sprint.

Okay the title can be a bit misleading. Since most people who hear the news announcements that TiVo is now offering application for the iPhone are going to think that they can view their recorded TV shows on their iPhone. Unfortunately that is not the case we are going to have to wait for Slingbox to finally get that option. But what we do get is the ability to schedule TiVo recordings directly from our iPhone to our device at home.

Verizon wireless is true that still trying to do everything it can to try and meet the success that AT&T has received by releasing the iPhone. Unfortunately with the recently released results of the Blackberry storm Verizon still needs to continue its push by offering new touchscreen phones. The Samsung Omnia is the next touchscreen phone to be offered by Verizon wireless to its customers in the hopes of keeping some of the younger subscribers from going over to AT&T.

Songbeat Download Free Music: Maybe Print E-mail
Songbeat Download Free Music: MaybeSongbeat is desktop app that lets users search for music on Seeqpod, Project Playlist, Last.fm and other sites, and then download the files and import them into iTunes or Windows Media Player, or burn them as a CD. The basic edition is free which lets you download a total of 25 songs, but if you want to download more songs then that you have to go for the Songbeat Pro version which lets you download an unlimited number of songs.  So now the old adage of, nothing is for free comes to mind, especially with Songbeat.

Songbeat Download Free Music: MaybeLet's take a look at what SongBeat is actually doing in here lies the problem. SongBeat allows you to search for music using any number of actual legitimate music sites such as Seeqpod, Project Playlist, Last.fm. Which gives people the impression that the software is a legitimate source of music. Unfortunately they were only using the sources as a virtual catalog of information. Just referencing the song names before switching over to a peer-to-peer network to actually download the music. Obviously this is where things get a legal. Now Songbeat makes the following statement on the website concerning the legality of their service.

“The downloading of music is not fundamentally illegal. However, it lies in the hands of the user to discern whether or not they have the right to download the particular music file at hand.”

Now if any legitimate company had to post that disclaimer on their company website they would immediately cause people to think twice about purchasing a product. Unfortunately the lure of free music downloads from Songbeat causes people to push that simple fact into the back of the minds. Another common excuse I hear from users of the service is the fact that they had to pay for Songbeat and then that must make it legal to download the music for free. All I have to say is this, if you watch the traffic on your system they are actually using your computer to host files on a peer-to-peer network. This means that you are in fact acting as an accessory to the theft of music. Which opens you up to legal matters from the RIAA which is the legal arm of the music industry and most commonly known to press lawsuits against users who disseminate free music or in other words stolen music. So think twice about using Songbeat to get free music because you're playing with fire and sooner or later you might get caught. Plus when the site gets closed down you are going to lose your registration fee.

If you want free legal music?
written by We7Steve, December 03, 2008
At We7 our music is ad-funded, so although it's free, artists and rights holders get paid, making it 100% legal! We have content from all four major labels and hundreds of indies.

SongBeat is awesome, but be careful because the software is legal but you may not actually be downloading legal MP3s.
