Spam. Learn about spam. ) Such files at the site may be bugged with viruses, & the site will definitely log your ip address! See these links for tips: How to find music

With some more experience you will probably be able to identify such spam files in your search results. Look at such things as file size, bit-rate, length of song, album if listed, etc. If you know a little about audio files, you will know that bit-rate & file size per time-length of the song are partly related.
Do not download audio files that do not show bit-rates.
Any file less than 2 MB (2,000 KB) is probably either spam or not what you are looking for if you are searching for music. You can use your search filter to filter search results via size. If list search results in Classic mode, you can list songs via bit-rate via clicking the Bit-rate column heading. Right-click the heading column bar to get menu to see more options if you do not see bit-rate column.
