I rarely watch TV, so I barely see music videos that always air on VH1 or MTV. So whenever I decide to watch a video on the Tube is because I heard it on the radio or because it might be a song by one of my favorite artists. I recently fell in love with Leona Lewis’s song, ‘Bleeding Love’ and so one day I decided to watch her music video. I was excited and I already had a pretty good idea of what it was going to be like. Man, was I disappointed! I didn’t expect the video to end up like that and in a way I lost my love for the song (Of course, I’ve gotten over it and I still like the song).

From the previous example, I noticed how much a music video has effect on a person like me. It really can make or break a song. Another example is Jennifer Lopez’s ‘Do It Well’ music video. The first time I saw it I was thinking, “What the hell was that???!” Again, I learned to forgive Jennifer Lopez, well actually David LaChapelle, the director of the whole video. But for a while I didn’t want to listen to the song just because the video destroyed my liking for the single.

Then there’s those awesome music videos like Britney Spears’ ‘Me Against the Music’ and Beyonce’s ‘Crazy In Love’ that make me love the song even more than I did before I saw it. Of course, this all based on my personal opinion, but I do think music videos have a lot power to raise the song’s popularity, but in many cases can work against it too.

I understand why some directors and producers have a hard time creating great music videos because they have to explain a story in 3-5 minutes. When they over think it too much, the video just turns into a disaster, but they do need to take great deal of consideration when creating the video as well. This is going back to JLo’s ‘Do It Well’ video and I have to say that the video and song didn’t match at all. She’s singing about a man that can “Do it well,” but in the video she’s beating up people and rescuing a little boy in the club. David LaChapelle, you’ve totally lost me!

I think the best music videos are the ones that are simple with the artist singing with a little bit of the story put together in the background. Like Avril Lavigne’s ‘My Happy Ending.’

I guess I’m writing this post to warn artists and directors that there are picky fans like me that hate videos that don’t do the song justice. Why make a disaster out of a great song?

Zune is not just for music, it is also a movie player and you can also watch TV shows and play games too. As more people buy this powerful media player there is more demand for video downloads for Zune. Here are some tips to help you find videos for your Zune.

Free video downloads for Zune.

There are tons of free video downloads for your Zune all over the internet. You will never have a hard time spotting websites offering free video downloads for Zune, but the problem is… these files are not safe to download. Websites offering free downloads are covered with pop-ups and banner ads which could and will harm your computer. What if your computer gets infected with adware and spyware? Yes the files you downloaded are free, however, your financial information that was on your computer could be stolen, or your computer hacked. It can be very costly to repair such damage.

Paid membership for lifetime unlimited video downloads for Zune.

Only a one time payment for a membership at around $34 and you get a lifetime of unlimited access not only to video files but music files, games, TV shows, movies and other Zune software.

Perhaps you just bought a brand new Zune player and want to find a place where you can get unlimited Zune downloads for your new player. The trouble is many of the paid sites offer downloads at $0.99 per music download. It costs even more if you wish to download movies for your player. You may have contemplated downloading music, movies and videos at some of the free online services that provide you unlimited Zune downloads. Sounds attractive but should you?

While the idea of getting free music, movies, videos and games sound great, it is hardly an affair to applaud about. Here are some risk factors you need to consider carefully if you want the free zune music downloads, movies and other entertainment media offered at the free resources.

1. Exposure to Harmful Software

Did you know that you are exposing your computer to harmful software applications like adware, spyware, Trojans, worms and the like when you download them together with the Zune music and movies you found at the free resources? It was never your intention I am sure but it does happen. What results is a loss in computer processing speeds, and data. The same can happen to your Zune media player.

In the worst case scenario, some of the adware and spyware are revealing your private information such as your surf history, important passwords and so on to the software client. Other users have complained that it was impossible to delete the malware

2. Download Speeds

Let us face it. Free sites cannot spend resources to maintain the entire network. Whenever many users get online to download Zune media files, they consume tons of bandwidth especially if they are movies or videos. In order to limit that, these free resources would cap the speed of downloads. This brings everything to a crawl and it takes ages to download. So much for free unlimited Zune downloads.

3. Incomplete or Corrupted Downloads

What if you spend one full hour downloading the latest movie for your Zune, and when you think you are done, you get an error message that the file is either incomplete or corrupted? That is going to be such a huge disappointment especially if it is a nice weekend evening when you are all set to watch the latest Fantastic 4 – Silver Surfer. Even songs can be corrupted. You would never imagine downloading Gimme More by Britney Spears only to find out it is corrupted and doesn’t play on your Zune.

These are the risks you got to take when downloading free movies, music, videos and games at the free sites. They “look” free but seriously, on second thoughts, you may not think so anymore. Why not pop over to my Zune blog and download some of your favourite songs and music at affordable paid membership sites for unlimited Zune downloads? It does not even cost you more than $40 for a lifetime membership.
