Every day people use google to search for everyday things. However a large percentage of people never use google to it's full potential. Google is one of the best sources of finding files such as mp3's, videos, programs etc. You can find absolute loads of open mp3 directories containing a ton of direct download links by simply using Google. If your one of the people on this site who simply can't find enough mp3 download links this is the article for you!
First up have a look at the below search string:
intitle:index.of + "
extension" + "
filename" -htm -html -php -asp
Now lets simply edit the string to find mp3's. This searches for open download directories.
intitle:index.of + "
mp3" + "
artist" -htm -html -php -asp
Okay, copy the above search string into the google search bar. Change the text
artist to the singer, band or album name you are trying to find.
For my example we are wanting to find some mp3's from the legendary punk band "Descendents". So here is what I search in google.
intitle:index.of + "mp3" + "Descendents" -htm -html -php -aspGoogle URLNow we are faced with some results:
This is where the luck comes in place, depending on the artist you are looking for you may come across a few dead links or password protected directories, however the majority of the time you will find great open download directories, just keep clicking through the results.
So we click the first result which came up, and find an open directory, with not only a few decent mp3's, but ton of others (this doesn't happen every time but more often than not).
And for the last time, here is the search string, save it!
intitle:index.of + "mp3" + "Descendents" -htm -html -php -aspBelieve me, there are an unbelievable amount of open directories out there and you can find them doing this simple search in less than 1min of your time.
How can you find albums I hear you say? Slightly harder, however using the similar method. A majority of the time you will find album directories when searching for mp3's. However when searching change the file extension in the search string to zip or rar and you may find the album in a compressed file format (albums are usually put in .zip or .rar format to compress the file size) which makes it a bit harder to find them.
