You can pay for online music videos, of course, but why pay? Nowadays, you can get lots of them free, if you know where to look.

Instead of having to put out your hard-earned cash to buy a VCD or DVD, you can connect to the Internet and watch music videos of your choice for free. To top it off, you can download and save them for future viewing. There are many music video download sites that offer this service for free. Even major record companies, including the Big Five (Sony, EMI, BMG, Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group) upload innumerable music videos from top performers for promotional purposes.

Even so, searching for good free online music videos can be quite frustrating at times. I've done some research on the subject and here are my picks for the top websites for watching free online music videos. Note that while most of them allow free downloads, some do not.
