Free Stuff: Part 1

Recently I have come across a lot of really cool and free resources online. So I thought I would share. I figure you must all love free stuff as much as I do! :) This is called Part 1 because I know I've found a lot more stuff but I just can't remember where. So hopefully there will be more to come...

LDS Sheet Music/MP3s:

http://www.lylehadlockmusic.com/sheetmusic.shtml
http://www.defordmusic.com/alpha.htm
http://www.petriefamily.org/ldsmusic/songlist.htm
--Lots of these sites have mostly choral arrangements of the hymns, but some are just for piano. Some of them are pretty good.

Online television/movies:
http://www.byutv.org/
--here you can watch lots of byutv movies and shows that they play. Just click on what you want to watch and make sure you have their player downloaded. Lots of documentaries, etc.

http://kennedy.byu.edu/archive/
--archives of many of the lectures from the BYU Kennedy Center for International Studies.

https://byugle.lib.byu.edu/byugle/error.php?err=107
--sorry, this one requires a BYU id login. But if you are a BYU student, you can watch free videos on the library website. They have lots of BYU lectures as well as archives of many of the LDS and BYU films available for viewing.

http://hlrc.byu.edu/television.php
http://beelinetv.com/
http://www.livestation.com/
--These three are international television websites. If you want to listen to the news in Albanian or watch children's television in Arabic, these three are great.

http://www.jesusfilm.org/film-and-media/watch-the-film
--and this one is really cool too. A Christian organization has taken a film about the life of Christ and translated it into more than 200 languages, all available for free. And the film is pretty good too. They even have a children's version in many of the languages!

Random:
http://www.freecycle.org/
Here you can give free stuff away and take free stuff off other peoples' hands. Just join the group that is in your area and you can see listings uploaded daily--and post things there yourself. Really a neat idea.

Well, there you go. Hopefully there will be a part 2 sometime soon...
