so, forgive me for wasting your time.

There's a lot of good information on the page - but this is what seems
like a winner and could be applied to other custom searches.
You create a keyword search without typing in a lot of additional
search terms each time you want to do that type of search. This is an
example of a mp3 search that looks at indexes of mp3's
"It’s easy to turn this into something easy to use in firefox with the
built-in keyword search.
In your firefox bookmarks, create a new bookmark with the following
fields:
Name: google music search
Location:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...%29+%22%s%22&bt
nG=Search
keyword: gms
The location is the same as what gets generated by the search in the
article, but I’ve replaced Nirvana with %s (the firefox substitution
token).
Now, when you want to find a new artist/song, just go to your firefox
toolbar and type “gms Led Zeppelin” and you’ll see all the free Led
Zep tunes out there. "

Before someone lambastes me for promoting piracy . . . it is just an
example of using a keyword / bookmark to make searching simpler and
avoid repetitive typing.
