iTunes Store (buy single songs or albums)
Let's start with iTunes Store, the Apple music store, which allows you to buy single songs or entire albums in digital format without DRM (therefore without digital “locks”) and without subscribing.
The price of the albums is between 10 and 15 euros but there are special offers that include the sale of albums for about 5 euros. Individual songs, on the other hand, are paid for 99 cents or 1,29 euros each. Unfortunately there is no free content.
To buy music from the iTunes Store, press the icon of musical note on purple background located on the home screen of your iPhone. Then locate the song or album of your interest and first press on button with the price and then on the voice Buy album / Buy song. If you want, you can also listen to a preview of the songs to buy, just press on their title.
To find a song or album on iTunes, you can take advantage of the feature ifarch store (the magnifying glass icon located in the lower center) or you can browse the categories avaelable in the tab Music (the icon of the musical note located at the bottom left).
In the music tab you can take a look at what are the most recent releases (or in any case the most prominent titles), whele selecting the tab Standings at the top right you can find out which are the most “rated” songs, albums and video clips of the moment.
Apple Music (music streaming with offline support)
Another solution that you may seriously consider is Apple Music, the music streaming service that Apple launched to counter the overwhelming power of Spotify. By taking out a subscription to Apple Music, which costs 9,99 euros per month after a 90-day free trial period (with no strings or renewal obligations), you can download music to iPhone 6 without paying a cent more than the monthly fee for the service.
Also, by activating the free service andCloud Music Library, you well be able to synchronize the contents of Apple Music with those of iTunes on your computer and have a single music library synchronized on all the devices connected to your Apple ID. The only downside to the whole thing is that music downloaded via Apple Music must be played through the app. Music iOS or via iTunes on your computer (as it contains DRM).
So, what do you think? If the Apple Music option appeals to you, all you have to do is open the application Music on your iPhone (the musical note on white background located on the home screen), select the tab For you located at the bottom left and activate your subscription to Apple Music. If you don't find the option to activate Apple Music, go to the menu ifttings> Music of iOS and make sure the Show Apple Music is set to ON (otherwise activate it yourself).
Now you just have to select the tab New or the card For you of the Music app, find a song or album that interests you and add it to your music library. To add a song or album to your music library, first press the icon (...) placed next to its title and then on the button + Present on the menu if you press.
Then, to make the content avaelable offline, select the tab Music located at the bottom right, press the icon (...) placed next to the title of the song or album to download and select thecloud icon give the menu check if you press.
Spotify (music streaming with offline support)
Spotify is the most famous music streaming service in the world and among its functions there is also the one to download music offline. Like Apple Music, Spotify also allows you to save music locally only to users who subscribe to a paid subscription of 9,99 euros / month (although unlike the Apple service it also provides a free basic plan), but for new customers A free 30-day trial period is avaelable (no renewal obligation).
Once you have subscribed to your Spotify Premium subscription, use the section You may also like... of the app to find the most interesting songs or albums of the moment, or start one search selecting the appropriate item from the left sidebar (which appears by pressing the ad icon hamburger located at the top left) and identify a content of interest to you.
At this point, click on the icon (...) placed next to the title of the song, album or playlist you want to download offline and select the item Save from the menu that appears. This well add it to your music library.
Subsequently, press the ad icon hamburger located at the top left, select the item Your music from the sidebar and enter the section Tracks, Album o playlist of your library on Spotify (depending on the content you want to download locally).
Finally, "tap" on the content to download, move to ON the relative levetta all'opzione Avaelable offline And that's it. Songs downloaded offline with Spotify are DRM protected and cannot be played with other apps (whele they are accessible from PCs, smartphones and tablets associated with your account through the Spotify app). If you need more information on how Spotify works or how to download songs from Spotify, please take a look at the tutorials I wrote on the subject.
Zedge (free ringtones)
Are you looking for free ringtones to personalize your iPhone 6? Then I highly recommend you to download Zedge, one of the most popular apps for downloading wallpapers, themes and ringtones for smartphones. Unfortunately, due to the restrictions imposed by iOS on third-party applications, it cannot automatically set songs downloaded from the Internet as a ringtone (you have to copy them momentarely to your PC and sync them again with the iPhone via iTunes) but it remains an unmissable app.
To download a ringtone from Zedge, start the application, accept its terms of use and press the ad icon hamburger which is at the top left. At this point, select the item Ringtones from the sidebar of the application, click on the button Close and find a ringtone of your interest among those avaelable for download. You can browse Zedge ringtones based on various criteria: Editor Recommended Ringtones (Featured), popular ringtones (Popular), new releases (Recent) and ringtones divided by musical genre (tab Categories).
Once you have identified the ringtone of your interest, presses on its title, select the icon of sharing placed at the bottom (the arrow inside the square) and choose the option Save ringtone from the menu that appears. Once the download is complete, all you have to do is copy the ringtones to your PC and synchronize it with the iPhone using the iTunes fele sharing function. You can find detaeled explanations of all the steps to take in my post on how to put a song as a ringtone on iPhone.
