MP3 searchers

There are basically 2 ways to get hold of MP3s off the net, either directly from HTTP and FTP lacations, or directly from other users, and we have all the bases covered. Searching for MP3s from HTTP and FTP sources is often a more reliable way to donwload MP3s than off another user, as quite often other users on a file sharing server come and go, leaving your MP3 only partially downloaded. There are a plethora of HTTP and FTP MP3 searchers out there, and many are of dubious quality, but in the Yippee! MP3 searchers category you'll find some of the best and reliable ones in existance.

One of the best is MediaGrab, which has a familiar Napster-style interface and verifies download links. You might also want to check out 2 Find MP3, and Agent MP3, both of which are very good programs for finding MP3s online. Sharing MP3s with other users, while at times a little unreliable, is an excellent way to find any MP3 you can imagine. Napster, which really needs little introduction, is by far the best (although it may not be around much longer). Another very popular MP3 file sharing tool is Gnutella (which also lets you exchange other types of files), and while its orignal developers have discontinued development of the program, there are a myriad of clones, many of which have vastly improved on the original, these being mainly Gnotella and Gnucleus. All of the above sharing programs are also completely free, and very fast to download due to their small size (and excellent connection here at Yippee!). So, there you have it, than answer to all your MP3 needs. Any Music lover will find any of these MP3 searcher programs extremely useful for grabbing all those great songs now available online.
