It's supposedly legit, I wonder if it might meet our needs in the short- to medium-term.
Just tested with "Dreadzone - live at Sunrise" album, mp3, app. 100 mb and it took app. 7 minutes at an average speed of 250 mb/s wireless. Looks a lot faster than 2share or zShared... Anybody want the album and test the download speed as well...? here goes: http://bayfiles.com/file/1v59/ZBw9Kj/Dr ... e-2006.rar
Thanks ee, I downloaded the file took around 2.5 mins to download pretty good.
Sounds good enough, at least to upload as well... and there's a 5GB file limit... Good enough for me. Now it's time to find the time to start rip 'em boots...

A concerned local in Coatsville found out about Dotcom's convictions and emailed all the neighbours alerting them to her concerns about him moving into the neighbourhood. To her suprise she (and every one else) got an email from Dotcom advising that he had just hacked the local server and found the email. He then advised that having him as a neighbour wasn't so bad as he could give insider trading tips, money laundering and dealing with problem neighbours!!!!

Would The Internet Archive be a possibility? They have a live music archive here:

Probably not. I don't think they've got the bandwidth to handle FLAC's.


If we can come to some consensus on what's looking like the best available service that's NOT going to get dissapeared by the USA KKK FREEDOM DRONES stepper warned us about, I'll start zipping stuff up and uploading.

jumbofiles.com is what a lot of sites are using now. Have we ruled that out already?

I noticed jumbofiles has this deletion schedule. I'm not sure if that would be a problem. Is there a way to predict how often the files would be downloaded (to predict their longevity)?

Hmmm - is 'burner' slang for a disposable item?

Here's an old radio show:

Weasel - WHFS Tapes - 00 - 1-17-83 A.mp3 - 53.5 Mb

Just wanted to see how it would work.

Oh, cool ... it plays...
