About Today: Crank Up Your Digital Music Life

If you can't see this email, click here

About.com


Some of us are old enough to remember how the Sony Walkman revolutionized the way we listen to music. In a post-iPod world, however, those cassette tapes seem hopelessly antiquated -- especially when compared with the myriad music streaming and downloading programs available today.

Best Streaming Music Sites
We're big fans of Spotify, which offers both free and paid access to a deep catalog of streaming music. In fact, our Guide to Digital Music thinks it might be the "ultimate digital music service." Discover how it stacks up against four of its main competitors.

Best Free (and Legal) Music Download Sites
You won't necessarily find best-selling bands and pop stars, but sites like Jamendo and SoundClick are great places for discovering up-and-coming artists without digging into your wallet.

Best Online Music Stores
Most people are familiar with iTunes and the amazing breadth of its music library, but there are a number of other online music stores, such as the indie-focused eMusic, that are well worth checking out, too.

Best Sites for Backing Up Your Music
Losing a massive library of music during a computer crash is painful. Make sure your tunes are backed up just in case disaster strikes.

About Today: Tropical Winter Vacation Ideas

If you can't see this email, click here

About.com


We're the first to agree that winter travel, especially around the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, can be a hassle. That said, there's nothing quite like trading snow boots for flip-flops and blizzards for beaches.

Save Money on a Hawaiian Vacation
You don't need us to tell you that Hawaii is an island paradise; you also know that traveling there can be expensive, particularly during the upcoming high season. Our expert Hawaii Travel Guide, however, has a number of tips and tricks to help keep the price tag for a blissful island vacation reasonable.

Eight Great Destinations in Southeast Asia
North America's winter holiday season loosely coincides with the cool season in many parts of Southeast Asia, including Thailand. That means comfortable temperatures, but perhaps more fellow travelers.

Popular Islands in Central America
Central America and its many stunning islands, including Roatan and Caye Caulker, offer lodging, dining, and nightlife options for every budget.

Find the Perfect Caribbean Island
The most difficult part of planning a Caribbean vacation, especially for first-time visitors, might be deciding where to go: after all, there are over 7,000 islands to choose from. Our Guide to Caribbean Travel can help you decide.
