Here's a crawler script that searches the excellent emusic.com Web site for the free mp3s available there. The good people at emusic.com offer a nice selection of freely downloadable promotional mp3s, but they unfortunately don't list all of those free mp3s in one convenient location.
Assuming this was merely an oversight on their part (;-), I wrote this script which creates a listing of all of those free goodies, with hyperlinks to the mp3 files and the various artist and album pages on emusic's site. It's really a kind of specialized search engine... I'll run it again from to time to keep it up to date.
If you know of any other sites that would benefit from such a convenient cataloging, let me know and I'll take a crack (no pun intended) at them, but I want to keep it legal (no warez) and smut-free. On-line books in HTML make good candidates for "conversion" to a single HTML or PDF document. Such books are often in password-protected directories (O'Reilly, for example), so I would need the password as well, and I would only publish the script, so that only legitimate users (and myself :-) have access to the final product.
Just to make myself perfectly clear: I don't want to rip anybody off, here, just rearrange some freely or legitimately available content to present it in a more useful form, and have fun hacking with Perl in the process.

Here's a couple of Perl scripts to convert Netscape's bookmarks into Explorer's favorites and vice-versa.

This system works for versions 3.x and higher of both browser suites.
