Muxtape is a beautifully straightforward site which allows users to upload their favorite tracks to share with friends through an elegant web interface. No special software is necessary. Now another developer has provided a search engine for Muxtape. Just type in the name of a favorite band or track and browse other tracks on playlists which show in the results. It's an easy way to discover new music—and free, which means the record industry will soon strangle the service in its cradle. (via Fimoculous)
