If you have a computer and are connected to the internet, you can easily stay connected with your family and friends. You can send messages through email services and you can cheer them up or celebrate holidays or special events with them with ecards. You can provide a cute, sentimental or practical message or even send music ecards online. Yet, online music cards are similar to a conventional type of card that also plays music. The music is in the cards in both varieties.

Musical Conventional Cards

Musical cards are found in both online and conventional forms. The traditional greeting cards have added music to enliven the usual format. The music they include with the message can vary greatly. They can range from old standards to Star Wars to rap. Themed music is common for Christmas and birthday cards with popular songs and tunes rendered by various musical artists.

These cards work because they contain a small device that triggers the music when the card is opened. Embedded in the card, the music will continue to play, running off its battery until you close the card or the small battery wears down. Sometimes, in the less expensive version, the cards can become stuck with the song playing continuously and becoming more of an annoyance than a pleasure.

The cost of many conventional cards with the music feature is somewhat higher than the conventional cards. They can be worth the extra expense. It depends upon the taste and preferences of the recipient.

Musical Ecards

Musical ecards are now very common on the net. You can send music ecards online by simply clicking a feature. They can also come already programmed with music. In some cases, you can keep the message or greeting but change the music to something that is more suitable. This provides you with more choices and greater variety than for a conventional musical card.

You might also prefer to send music ecards online for other reasons including:

• They are free
• They are easy to send
• You can pick one from your home or in your free time at work
• They can be animated as well as musical

Yet one of the best advantages of choosing to send music ecards online is the non-stick factor. An ecard does not get trapped in a groove, repeating the same old song over and over until you simply want to destroy it.
