MP3 Hosting Site

Post by Derrick Mau »

I want to post MP3's on this Forum. Can anyone recommend a FREE hosting site, preferably one that doesn't deal with advertisements to promote themselves?

It's going to be very hard to find something free without advertising on it.

Your internet provider usually gives you 5 or 10 megs for your personal homepage, but they might get mad if people start using up there bandwidth downloading your mps's. I've posted clips there, before, without any complaints.

There is a lot of free space out there, on the Internet. Some of them allow mp3's, and some don't. Do a search for "Free Web Space" and you'll see what I mean. They are all going to put ads on your pages, and people will have to go to your page to hear the music.

A better way, might be to joing a music site, like:


http://www.norecordlabel.com


http://www.music75.com

htpp://www.soundclick.com

Take care, and good luck,

Les

Derrick, I use Free File Hosting http://freefilehosting.net/play.cfm?id=42AEAA73-A116-E75D-F1C792EF4DC35AEA
on which I can upload one mp3 at a time, 3meg max. Recorded at 96kbps, that will do a song under three minutes with pretty good fidelity.

Meanwhile, I'll check out Les' links.

Derrick, I have an account at soundclick. I found it quite easy to join and upload tunes. The big problem i've had is I can no longer stream tunes from their site. They upgraded something which will not recognize my player.
