Google - the net's best tool

As the worlds most used and the internet's best search engine, Google does have many very useful search codes. With simple and short terms you can search whole web server directories for any filetype you look for.

Today, many people share their music directories and make them, if intentionally or not, available to the public search machines and thus to everybody.

With the following search code you can easily search for mp3s on public directories:

intitle:"index.of" name.word.word (filetype1|filetyle2|filetype3)

The operator 'intitle' gives the search engine the order to look for the expression "index.of" within the title of any documents in the web. And since any site does have an index which keeps information about the directory of the used webspace. You then can further specify what you are looking for in indicating the requested filetypes and lastly also the name of the artist or album. If you put a dot (.) in between the words google doesn't care if there is a space, underline or hyphen in the filename and there will be more search results.

Have fun, because there are so many unprotected directories out there with many popular and unpopular music in mp3/mp4/wmv format available in two or three clicks.
