free downloadable files can be easily accessed at Open
Web Directories. Its like turning Google into Napster of 2000, isn’t it VOW !!
So here is the tricky url syntax:
-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(your choice) “name”
“your choice” can be either of the following file types:
-> wma|mp3 for Music
-> pdf|doc for Ebooks
-> mpg|wmv for Videos
and “name” can be any specific music file, movie or book, you are looking for.
For example:
-inurl:(htm|html|php) intitle:”index of” +”last modified” +”parent directory” +description +size +(wma|mp3) “Shakira”
This is a Google search string for searching open web directories containing downloadable Shakira music files.
