3. GTunes Music Downloader

GTunes Music Downloader is an oldie however a goodie … like Tom Waits. It usually searches through several big domains of downloadable music for your queries where you’ll find millions of artists and songs across generations.

The search options are pretty basic, so this is best used if you know exactly what songs you’re looking for and just want to get out there and download them.

Sometimes the best apps for your free music downloads are those which are not even designed specifically for that purpose. TubeMate is an app that lets you download YouTube videos in a number of formats, including audio too.

This app is a worthy alternative to TubeMate, with the added advantages of a prettier interface and the ability to download music from the ultimate source for electronic sets and independent artists, SoundCloud.

KeepVid is easily the most user-friendly free music downloader present out there, although it doesn’t let you download music in the M4A format, which TubeMate does.

Besides that, it’s a great option. Kindly note that in order to download SoundCloud tracks you’ll need to go to SoundCloud after installing KeepVid, choose the track you want, click on the “Share” icon, then select KeepVid in the options.
