Top 10 Free Sound Effects Websites

All the best sites for free sound effects.

Another great site worth mentioning: http://soundsnap.com
--An account is required, and only 5 free downloads are allowed per month without paying.
--But sounds have great quality, amazing selection, great search and preview device.
--Definitely worth making an account, even if you only get 5 free sounds.


I researched and tested all of these sites and came up with this:
Here's the list:

1.http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/index.php

Remember when you could watch a video without having to sitthrough a commercial?

Remember When Music Videos Were uploaded by users not VEVO

Remember When all the info was to the right of the video?

Remember you could rate a video1-5 stars?

Remember The famous yellow subscribe button?

Remember when the users controlled the site not corcorations?

WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE!

Post this in every video and le`s start a youtube revolution

@supatreeck

Remember when you could CLICK THE SKIP BUTTON?

Remember how the VEVO are HIGH QUALITY?

Remember when people weren't lazy and just moved their eyes to the bottom of the video?

Remember when you could like or dislike a video?

Remember...wait, ITS A FUCKING COLOR!

Remember when the corcorations organized everything?

[kulkid40]

@supatreeck remember when we didn't have to pay for youtube? oh wait that's still there...and it probably is because of all the upgrades and VEVO
