Quote from: "Harbinger"So now let's send a message to MisterX: don't play with the computer in the bathtub!! :lol:

LOL! Considering that the server was 1500 miles away, that is a rather large tub! ;)

I checked the oldfiles database at :

http://modplug.soonlabel.com/music

because I uploaded some tracks to the ModPLug Download Center in the past.
I couldn't find them back.

And this URL gives a 404 :

thank you Sam, I have that fixed.

you might have to empty your cache to see it

i'd add, after checking some of the latest tracks posted here, that indeed many free hosting services are out there, but only a (very) few offer online streaming and NO poop-ups..

maybe it'd be a good thing to cross-check those free providers and see which one(s) offer most free services..

Sam_Zen

Good suggestion. We should make a list of URLs with the easiest  music upload facilities without popups and spam.

So I started with rapidshare.com to upload an .it file extracted from the ModPLug archive.
I could directly start uploading without any form writing or registering, so that's a plus.

Generated text after uploading :
Your file has been saved and can now be downloaded 10 times. It will be deleted after 60 days without download. If you would like to enable more people to download your file, please transfer it to a free Collector's Account or a Premium Account.
The free Collector's Account asks for a registration with ID/PW plus email address. That's a minus.
For downloading a 25 sec delay is included. To get something for free, I find that quite acceptable.

I fully appreciate your solution to offer space for the ModPlug Download Center archive.
But I don't understand the construction.
Zipped modules, not necessary, but, ok, but why is every zip filled with a readme.txt which is no longer valid ?

I "moved" to www.box.net. So far it works fine and the "lite"-account is free. You'll get some basic statistics of how often your files are being accessed and they even send a mail if somebody is downloading your files...
...and there is a streaming-function that supports at least mp3 and wav files (others not tested yet). Unlike the "one-click-filehoster" (Rapidshare, Mediafire, Uploaded.to etc.) the files won't be deleted after a period of time.
Since I'm using an ad-blocker, I can't say if there is any spam, but I don't think so.

If you wish, you can "test" it by clicking the link in my signature. Meanwhile all my songs are hosted at box.net....

sooner or later, every free "all-purpose" hoster either closes down or adds a massive amount of ads to their pages. getting some proper hosting is really the only solution.

Hi Sam,

I did nothing to the files.
MrX FTP'd the files to my website from his backups. I doubt he did anything with them as well.

it happened often enough already. file hosters are getting unreliable pretty fast.

Happy breakpoint, btw! :P

I haven't seen any updates on the sourcecode some days now, figured something was happening.
