yeah, there should be a message at the top of the mp3 page explaining... we need someone new to host the mp3s for us... with lots of space and bandwidth...

Approximately how much bandwidth are you talking a month?

I could host them.
Feel free to get at me on AIM at TobySU03 or Dairymatt or shoot me an email. - Matt |

I don't know if this is a good idea or not, but what if you were to put all the mp3's in a zip file and host it at megaupload or something, and leave instructions on the page that if people are planning on downloading all of the mp3's just click the link to get them all at once, it could save a lot of bandwidth... potentially. Just a thought.

It could. But for people with slower connections, it would be an issue.
I actually have unlimited bandwidth with my hosting plan for my website so it wouldn't be any issue hosting them there. - Matt |

thanks matt, i sent you an e-mail yesterday, i hope you got it okay?
i think that if we were to use megaupload or a site like that, we would have to change the link every week or so? |

I don't think you ever have to change the links for those files, as long as someone downloads them once every 30 days or so...

It looks like this problem may be resolved - but I was wondering if maybe you could have the mp3s available on a rolling schedule - 5 or so at a time per week or something like that.
Hopefully, though, you guys have worked it out! |

I've seen links to the mp3 page posted up on various forums advertising the links as the contents of an actual album. I don't think the 10gb of traffic in the space of a few days is caused internally anyway. It's a pity really.

By the way, I don't know how large the videos are, but I have another 600MB that you could use for them if you want to toss some of those up on my server.

Shouldn't be a problem. If it is, we can always take them down.

Why don't you have them saved with www.filesend.com or www.megaupload.com ?
The sites will hold them for 30 days without download. As long as someone downloads them, they'lll stay up forever. I use filesend on my site and it's very ewfficient (although we are using it for slightly different things). |

I haven't been around in a while and figured I would do a quick update on the data transfer thus far.
We have done: 39GB in August 39GB in September 50GB in October 73GB in November 97GB in December 74GB in January 56GB in February So for anyone counting that is almost half a terabyte of Damo MP3 and Video files! - Matt |
