Introduction
Hindi music, especially movie music, is hugely popular all across the world. You can claim that this is because of the Indian diaspora aboard or the idea of 'Exotic India' that foreigners have, what we will focus on here is that Bollywood music is very popular and that a great number of people want Hindi songs free downloads.
History
One way to get Hindi songs free downloads is to use YouTube. You will find that searching YouTube will give you a great number of results for Hindi music. Everyone will find something to their taste – music from old movies that has been immortalized in the evergreen voices of Lata Mangeshkar, Mohd. Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Manna Dey and more, music from the '80s and '90s, which was all fun and dance, and of course, music that follows the present trend.
You only have to find suitable software to get these Hindi songs free downloads – YouTube Downloader is a good one. There are also many websites which allow you to enter the URL of a song on You Tube and then download it to your system.
Another good way of finding Hindi songs free downloads is by downloading file-sharing software - through this a community of users share files with each other. You will have to offer your own songs for download by others (though this is not a compulsion, but it is good practice and earns you goodwill in the community!). Once you have the software, all you need is to search for the songs and download them. Be sure to keep them well-organized, as this helps in keeping track of just what you have downloaded.
Besides this, a simple search online will bring up plenty of websites from which you can get Hindi songs free downloads. Most of these are hassle-free, and do not even require registration to be able to download the songs. You can even download entire albums that have been compressed or zipped to make the downloading experience easier and less time-consuming.
There are some which set a limit on the number of Hindi songs free downloads, and you have to pay after the allowed quota of free songs is exhausted.
