The Hype Machine is an mp3 blog aggregator I came across via a Google search. Not only does it track what songs are being blogged on mp3 blogs, but its search functionality allows you to search for songs that may be posted as mp3s on other blogs. It’s not really a substitute for file-sharing systems, but it’s a good way to find songs that are available online legitimately or at least finding mp3s people have posted to the web illegitimately. It looks like they have a policy in place for de-listing artists who don’t want their material found through their service. I’ve been remiss in learning about the world of mp3 blogs, and The Hype Machine seems like a good place to start.
I’ve been using http://elbo.ws/ to search for mp3s, but I’ll have to check into this site too.
