For most of our tunes Ron's Music Stuff uses lala.com to offer its readers streaming music. There are ups and downs to every service, but we feel that lala offers the most freedom - full songs, tons to choose from and great embedded player. It is, however, a little complicated, so we offer the following information.
The first time you click on any lala stream embedded on Ron's Music Stuff, you'll be able to listen to the full song exactly once with no charge. You'll be able to do this for five days with the entire lala catalog, which is pretty massive. After five days, to continue utilizing one-play, full-song streams, you'll need to sign up for a lala account--which is 100% free. They just require an e-mail address. You can continue to use lala this way for the rest of your life, getting one free play of any song from here to eternity. Many songs even switch to a 30-second sample once you've already used your free play. The lala FAQ can tell you even more. Enjoy the tunes.
