Ashland University has just partnered with the online music service Ruckus Network to provide the student population with unlimited download access to a library of over 2.5 Million songs. This service replaces the now defunct services previously provided by Cdigix (Please note that Cdigix play lists will not transfer to the new Ruckus service).

As part of the Ashland University community, you can now get free, legal music downloads from Ruckus.com!

Simply go to Ruckus.com, click on “Join Ruckus” and enter your Ashland University email address. The registration process will only take a few minutes.

Ruckus certifies that all downloads are 100% legal, virus-free and spyware-free.
