Anyone who really enjoys their music on the go likely is well aware of iPod downloads and their ability to take portability to its ultimate level. These downloads are easy to get, generally considered affordable and put the power of complete library management right in an owner's hands. But even with the pricing on iPod downloads being considered affordable, some cannot pay the price.

So, is it possible to save money on iPod downloads? Absolutely, there are a variety of places iPod fans can go to get some real bargains on downloads. Let's look at some of the ways:

- Bargains on iTunes. While this site doesn't always offer promotions, sometimes they can be found for iPod downloads. Check for special promotions on upcoming releases and even freebies that show up from time to time.

When new albums are getting ready to hit the stores, music labels will sometimes offer deals on a single or even the ability to download a song for free. Once that song is in an iPod download library, it's the owner's to keep.

- Package deal sites. There are some great iPod download sites that offer a single pricing for multiple downloads. This means members can get as many downloads as they want when ever they want. Since these are membership based, those who really love music can get files for iPod downloads at a fraction of the going rate.

As long as these sites have the correct licensing agreements, the deals are acceptable and don't violate any copyright laws. These sites that offer bargain iPod downloads generally come at a one-time fee or charge a monthly or yearly fee to cover the licensing rights.

- Band sites. Sometimes individual bands themselves will offer free iPod downloads to plug their upcoming releases. These are great deals to take advantage of because they are assured to not violate copyright law and they cost nothing to download. These downloads are offered generally on a limited time basis, so they need to be acted on right away.

- Independent sites: Many bands that don't have recording contracts at the moment offer their music free of charge in iPod download format. The beauty of these downloads is they are free, generally, and they sometimes are quite good.

This is a great way to explore up and coming artists before others have found them out. These sites can be found all over the Internet and enable the direct downloading of some great tunes for iPods and other players.

- Public domain sites: There are a lot of songs out there for iPod download that are in the public domain. This means they are free to download and legal to distribute. The options in the public domain are generally pretty surprising, too, and can include everything from old time favorites to fairly recent hits.

As iPod downloads become more popular, the choices on the market for music fans are getting better and better. The pricing on downloads does tend to be pretty uniform, however, there are outlets for finding real bargains if users know where to look.
