Media — images, videos, and audio files — are all over the place on the web, and being able to integrate them into your websites is a standard task today. In this series we're going to learn how to tackle the most common media needs on your site by creating a band website. It's going to need a lot of different kinds of media, and by building out a complete, working site, we'll get to understand the tools very well, in particular the Media module. We're going to be using version 1.x of the Media module in this series, and we'll also take a look at the differences between versions 1 and 2, and why you might pick one over the other. Note: This series is covering Media Module version 1.x. To learn about Media Module 2.x, check out our Using Drupal Chapter 4: Media Management series.
