Warning: MIDI files can sound very different depending on what
sound card or synthesiser you have;
also, many of these files are computer-generated and very unmusical!
MIDI is a good way to get a rough impression of what a piece is like,
but if you download a MIDI of a piano piece and
then learn to play the piece yourself, you should expect your version
to sound much better.
Some of the mp3s on these sites are rather good...
