I have made a small website that searches Google for MP3s/Flac/Oggs/Other music files. I know a whole load of these already exist but im releasing this ones source under the GPL (Minus MySQL passwords obviously) and so far i think im the only one to do this.

Its hosted in my bedroom and on a FreeDNS domain and before i for out for a proper domain i would appreciate if you went to the site and ran a few test searches.

http://gmp3.chickenkiller.com

If you get any errors post them here or email me so i can sort them out.

Thanks

Yeah it works pretty well. A good idea to run each page through a markup validator (http://validator.w3.org/) to ensure it complies with html standards first though. 14 errors is not bad but it'll only take a few mins to get 0.

I searched through it and the results were weird. I'm using firefox with adblock and noscript enabled. I even tried allowing your site with noscript but same results again.
Here is the line that google prints.

Results 1 - 10 of about 2,910 for -inurl:htm -inurl:html intitle:"index of" mp3 "ayo technology". (0.19 seconds)

It works by using those search options to look specifically for MP3's and filter most other files. Until i can work out a way th download the results and parse them myself I have to jsut redirect to google and do that.

** Sorry for the /massive/ bump. **

Thanks for the idea! I spent a bit of time today going through each page so they are all now XHTML 1.0 Transitional valid. Thanks!
