Thinking of starting a demo mixes/tunes hosting site

Mods: sorry if this is in the wrong place and apologies for also posting it in DJ Promotion, but I think it's something that everyone might be interested in and I know lots of people who read this don't read DJ Promotion and vice versa. Please move it if you think it should be elsewhere.

Hey folks, I've been thinking about this for a little while and I'm considering building a section into my new website whereby people can upload demo tracks or mixes for others to download.

It would be similar to yousendit.com in that you upload the track then get a link where people can download it, although it'd be tailored for people seeking feedback on mixes and tracks they've made, so there would be features for you to put some details about you and your track/mix, etc.

I also might integrate a commenting system, whereby people who listen to your track can then leave comments about it on the site.

Obviously it would be free and wouldn't be riddled with ads, nor would it make you wait for ages before you can click on the link (like so many of these upload sites do)...

Just after your thoughts really, do you think you guys would find it useful? Have you got any comments or suggestions of things you'd like included?

This sounds like a great idea. Good thinking Stu.

This is 10X more legit than the majority of the threads I see in these forums. You are bringing something useful and free to a group of people who can really use it.

Respek.
