The interface is as basic as it can get, just a search mask that waits for user input and a search button.

You may enter song names, artist names or albums. The search results page looks always alike though. Song names on the left, listen and download links to the right and the number of pages with additional hits below. If you click on Listen a new page (or tab in Firefox) opens with a basic player with play and stop functions.

A click on Download immediately opens a Save As window where you can save the download. Download speeds can vary greatly since no files are hosted on the mp3zy server and depend solely on the server where the music is hosted.

Missing are ways to add several files to the music player and a way to download more than one file at once. Other than that it’s a great fast way to find music on the Internet.

The interface looks pretty much like Google’s interface. Just a search box and some links that point to some inner pages. All you need to do to get it working is enter a name of an artist, album or song and Skreemr searches its database for reference to your search string.

A search for Linkin Park revealed more than 2300 entries. Each search results page contains ten links to mp3’s with information about the absolute link to the mp3, a description, name and details as well as a basic music player that connects and plays the mp3.

Hovering your mouse over the song url reveals even more information such as the bitrate, the cover art and the last time the url had been crawled.

Skreemr supports some advanced search parameters. They can be used to search for an exact phrase (”My favorite Band”), to emphasize words (”My favorite Band +live +London”) and to exclude words from the search (”My favorite band -live”).

This is a great service that is surely going to face some heat from the Music Industry. Skreemr offers a great way for users to find new mp3 files and download them to their computer
