Choosing Music

General
I am more noble than you? And you are more noble than me?
I'd like some advice from anyone that imports music into their game projects or animations. I'm having difficulty choosing on where to get my music.
A very good friend of mine showed me Pinkuboa's blog which has a large list of various sites that offer free music and sound effects for animation and video game projects, which I think is awesome because I keep being led to sites that offer "free" music/sound effects but only if you sign-up and/or pay a fee. These sites should be burned down. Not taken down, BURNED!!!...how to set fire to a website, I dunno.
But before he showed me that, I was, and still am, clingy to Melody Loops. There is a FREE tab that has 15 free-to-use music tracks; it hasn't been updated since earlier this year, but other than those, all the others you have to pay for. I think the prices on each track is either $5 or $10. Not bad from the ones I've been seeing that were between $30 and $100. I've already signed up and have 65 tracks under my favorite list; it's free to listen but for protection there's a "bong" sound that appears every few seconds, depending on how long the music is.
I dunno what to do; either to use some free music/sounds or stop being a begger and cough up $5 for a couple of tracks. Of course my projects are a long way from finished but it's just me thinking ahead too far, a bad habit of mine.
If anyone could throw some info or advice my way, I'd sure appreciate it and maybe calm my brain down some.
