FilesTube.com - Find Download Links

The site searches to find sites that you can download from, you can go to FilesTube.com, select a format (or choose all formats), and type in the search; FilesTube will provide you with a list of links that match your search. The links can be rated on a scale of one to five stars and broken links are supposed to be reported and removed. As of right now there aren't many ratings and there are some broken links in the search results, but clearly with time, if this site is to gain popularity, the users will report to the site which are up or down and rate the links to make the downloading more efficient for everyone.
