Listen and Download Mp3 with Mp3zy
If you are looking for a Google-like search engine - in terms of simplicity and quality - when it comes to searching for, listening to and downloading mp3 music files from the Internet then mp3zy could be just what you are looking for. 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.
Update: MP3ZY is no longer available. I suggest you either head out to YouTube and use the video hosting service to find and listen to music that you are interested in, or use a service like Spotify or Rdio instead. Both offer limited free accounts that you can make use of to discover and listen to music.

The warning message about AAC streams when you load streams is because you don’t have the free Orban AAC/aacPlus Player Plugin installed.

Justin, thanks for the information.
does this support AAC ? or only mp3 streaming
I’d say it supports all pls streams but I have not tried that so cannot verify it 100%.
Thank you Martin for a most informative and viable solution (it allowed me to play streams from a Netherland internet radio station in my WMP)! Continued success to you!

Your steps’ recommendation is still valid until 7th October 2012.. Thank you very much !!
Thank you!
You must convert file.pls to file.m3u
because file.pls open with winamp and file.m3u open with wmp.
Hi
2017 still kicking on Windows 7
Thx a ton
Hey, even i can do it, i stumbled through it and it works great! The only instruction advice i will add as i had to figure this out, when the wmp box opens that says save or open the bar on right says wmp click that drop down and select “open pls in wmp” once you do that it will work . Took me quite some time to discover that as i am no computer expert by any means. Having said that, previously i had downloaded codec packages and something about aac. None did any good. This rocks, i listen to a lot of internet radio and a number of them have dropped flash player and getting wmp to work had been a nightmare. So many thanks for this great solution to another problem that Micro-Hell will not even address. Peace- Out
openplsinwmp came in a zip file. I unpacked it, and didn’t find anything that looks like an executable, and even the files in the “doc” folder were in a format windows didn’t recognize. I’m not stupid. you said it would open effortlessly. It didn’t. This a rabbit hole I don’t want to go down.
