Music streaming without registration - click here

Registration is mandatory for many music streaming services. We show you services where you can enjoy music even without registration.

Soundcloud: Stream music for free, but less choice

A well-known streaming service for mainly self-made music is Soundcloud.

• Here you can search for artists and songs directly and stream them without registration or advertising.
• However, the offer is much more limited than with other services. An advantage with Soundcloud is that you can also discover other versions of songs.
• There is also a mobile page as well as an iOS and Android app.

The Internet Archive: Stream records for free

In addition to the free Soundcloud solution, there is the "Internet Archive" with around 25, 000 rare sound carriers:

• The "Internet Archive" (archive.org) provides the digitized version of the records for free use.
• In cooperation with the audio archiving company "George Blood, LP" older and rare recordings are now accessible to a wide audience.
• However, there is no limit to the frequency of playback, so that the records can be played back as desired.
• It is also easy to download the recordings in various formats and quality levels.
• The digitizations are copies of shellac records. These are records with a diameter of 25 to 30 cm, which can be seen as the predecessors of the vinyl record known today.
• The plates were used until 1958.
• "The Internet Archive" includes works by Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Bing Crosby.
• At the top left of the page you can search for a specific song. Alternatively, you can use a filter for the year, artist and genre to search.

Last.fm: listening to music - but with advertising

At last.fm you can search for songs, albums and artists and then listen to them. But not as fast as it sounds. First, a 30 second commercial is shown before the respective music video starts. There is also a link for Spotify, but you must be registered for Spotify.

Music streaming via video portals

Many are already doing it anyway: listening to music on YouTube. However, there are also very good other portals that specialize in music videos. This allows you to enjoy the music videos without registration.

• dailymotion is one of these portals. You can use the service without registration. If you still register for free, you also have the option to follow channels and like videos.
• Putpat is another alternative. It convinces with good music quality, but switches about 15-20 seconds of advertising between the individual videos. Those who can live with it will also be satisfied with this streaming service.

If you still want to use Ampya, Simfy or Spotify with a registration, we will show you the three services in comparison.
