By Henry Vee

So, you want to listen to your tunes on your PSP? Well, the good news is you can. The really good news is that you don't have to be very tech savvy to do it. This tutorial on downloading music to your PSP will have you up and dancing to your tunes in no time.

1. Speak the right language
The first thing you should do is convert the songs you want to download to your PSP into MP3 format. This is the format that the PSP uses. WMA & WMV files will not work. You can use something like iTunes or Sony's Image Converter to convert your music to MP3 format.

2. Get connected

1. Connect your PSP to your computer with a USB 2.0 cable.
2. Press the home button on the PSP.
3. Use the left and right directional buttons on the PSP to select "settings".
4. Use the up and down directional buttons on the PSP to select "USB Connection".
5. Press the "X" button on the PSP to display "USB Connection".
6. In a few seconds your computer should recognize the connected PSP and it will show up as a new hard drive (usually E: or F:)

3. Download music to PSP

1. On your computer select the letter of the connected drive.
2. Create a new folder on the selected drive and name it PSP.
3. Inside this new PSP folder create a new folder called "Music".
4. Copy the MP3 files you want into this music folder.
5. When you have downloaded your music to the PSP, press the "O" button on the PSP to exit "USB Connect" mode.

Now, rock on!
