Hey. I updated this once again. Sorry about the long delay this time though. I'm down in San Antonio on vaction and dont have tons of computer access time . Anyway, have fun.
Cheers,

music.download.com still does that thing with not uploading your songs. I had an account that I gave up on, but I am starting a new one hoping for more success. Apparently you need to email them and tell them to upload your song if they dont. Kind of a pain, but it seems like the site gets plenty of traffic. I know some people that get over 2,000 downloads a week for individual songs.
Hey man.Cool post.
www.mixposure.com
free:yes
maximum free storage:unlimited
maximum upload file:7mb
mp3 quality:unlimited
www.isound.com
free:yes
maximum free storage:5 tracks or 3 tracks
mp3 quality:112kbps
Download.com is slow with accepting your tracks but when this done is very familiar and you can have thousands of downloads
In this site I found the best producers at psy trance like digitalsam-Nuxx-PsillyX-Quasar van der housen and many many more
can a mod please make this a sticky thread.
It's really helpful in my opinion!!!!
I really don't have time to check all of these, for one, it's not me who needs a host.
The ones I've checked so far are either temporary or you can only upload one per week or there is a time limit before it downloads.
So, which of these hosts is long-term, and best for hosting mp3's (as in about 5 songs @ no more than 5mb), so that they can be streamed through an online mp3 player?
