MPFree.com Names Green Day Artist of the Month for August 2005, "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" is Most Downloaded Song

MPFree.com announced today that Green Day was the websites most downloaded artist for August 2005, followed by Mariah Carey and Black Eyed Peas.

Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) September 15, 2005 -- MPFree.com members overwhelmingly chose Green Day as Artist of the Month for August 2005. Green Day's smash hit single "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" from their most recent album "American Idiot" was the most downloaded song. Artist of the Month represents the most downloaded artist as chosen by MPFree members. Mariah Carey and Black Eyed Peas took second and third place, respectively. "Beverly Hills" by Weezer was the second most downloaded track and "Don't Cha" by The Pussycat Dolls was third.

Green Day's latest album, "American Idiot" has been certified quadruple platinum for U.S. shipments in excess of 4 million copies by the Recording Industry Association of America.

In addition to winning MPFree's Artist of the Month title, Green Day also won "Video of the Year", "Best Group Video", "Best Rock Video" and the "Viewers Choice" awards at the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards show for their "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" video.

MPFree.com is a website that provides its members with totally free and legal music downloads. "We're giving our members the best of both worlds—a huge selection of music downloads that are both 100% free and 100% legal," said Bill Diamond, Co-Founder of MPFree.

The concept for MPFree came from its sister site, PhoneHog.com. PhoneHog.com is a successful rewards program founded 5 years ago that gives its members free long distance calls when they take advantage of special offers. www.PhoneHog.com has more than 4 million members and has given away more than 100 million free long distance minutes to date. MPFree utilizes the same basic model, but gives away free, legal music downloads instead of free long distance.
