Shed the shackles of iTunes

Written on 8:45 PM by TLC


One of my favorite things about the internets is the never ending access to free tunes. If I'm not ordering albums from independent sellers on Amazon, I'm tearing through a fully loaded queue at SpiralFrog. The rapidly expanding service is one of the top three distributors of online music, and is largely web-based (not requiring massive software installation). After registering, I've downloaded many albums from groups like The Mars Volta and The Killers, and in return all I have to do is renew my account once a month by answering an uber-short survey about how you listen to your tunes. One drawback: audio files are not iPod compatible (which is no big deal, if you're opposed to the evil Apple monopoly).

And we're off like a herd of turtles

Welcome to the inevitable debut of 'How to be a Dude on a Dime,' my blahg dedicated to bringing readers the best in deals, design and all out gut-busting (be it beer or humor).

To save time, here's a list of what I aim to cover:

  1. t-shirts
  2. music
  3. sneaks
  4. movies
  5. good times (beer and grub)
  6. funny shit
While I'm obviously not out to change the world, I can make a difference in the wallets of fellow dudes (and chicks on occasion). Moral of the story - Never pay retail.
