A Guide to Search Results for "Music"

help - feedback - sponsor this guide

The search term "music" is unambiguous, but for the fact that there is no consensus on what music actually is. At its core, music is an art form that employs the medium of sound, but any type of sound or symbolic representation of sound can be described as music, and it is virtually impossible to draw a clear line between the art form of music and the related art forms of poetry and dance. The lines are blurred even further by music theory, which introduces mathematical concepts into the definition of what is and is not music. Overlooking the ambiguity of what is and is not music, a great deal of recorded music can be found on the Internet in MP3 format by virtue of the enormous popularity of peer-to-peer file sharing networks such as KaZaA, Morpheus, WinMX, and the late, great Napster. A wealth of information is also available about the cultural icons who compose and perform classical and popular music.
