Title: Looking for a decent, fast MP3 file host
Post by: Scotty477 on May 13, 2008, 08:20:52 PM

I'm after a decent, fast MP3 file host, rather than clogging up this site with my clips.

Any good ones out there?

Soundclick will limit you to a bitrate of 128mbs, whereas box.net (which I like and use a lot), you can use whatever sample rate you want. You can also store whatever files you like with them too. You can get free storage (about 1Gb I think) with box.net, but for £2.50 a month you get 5Gb storage.

^ I don't think soundclick limits the bandwidth, but there is a cap on the size of the file you an upload, which is effectively the same thing.

I've yet to find anyone complain about 128, however.

Soundclick used to be much less reliable, but of late has been working flawlessly.

Thanks for the advice. I went for box.net

I'll test it out with an older clip here;
