I love your blog, you have exposed me to so much wonderful music. <br /><br />Kind of in line with Neil's offer, once you decide on a new site, you should just make a post and ask people to upload all the albums they have from here and post the new links in the comments. Just provide a list of which ones need new uploads, so people know where to look. And maybe make the list a shared document of some kind, so people can announce which have been completed (or moderate it through comment feedback). Kind of a mini crowd-sourcing experiment, but I bet it would be mostly complete within a week or so. I would certainly help.<br /><br />Another possibility would be managing your own server of files, which would allow you much more freedom in how people access them, but I understand that you probably want to avoid file-hosting for legal reasons. <br />You could try switching to torrents and seed them from a server located outside of the U.S. You could either coordinate this with friends who live elsewhere, or buy server space from a company.<br /><br />Best of luck, I'll be watching the blog and hoping :)<br />Gabegabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09384734562364666560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3262584283674109553.post-20403920530539293482012-01-24T11:42:45.813-08:002012-01-24T11:42:45.813-08:00Hello Mutant Sounds - I'm another huge fan. I ...Hello Mutant Sounds - I'm another huge fan. I just posted the below message on the No Longer Forgotten Music blog, as he said he was working out alternatives to 'locker' uploads. I thought you might be interested too:<br /><br />Newsgroups might be a better bet, though on the surface they appear a little complicated. I think that’s why very few people in the blogosphere know how to use them - but if you give them no choice then they'll learn quick. I don't see why you shouldn't be able to place NZB files ('keys' to access the data, which you then open with a program like SuperNZB) directly on to a blog. Download speeds are pretty quick, and I think your files potentially remain available forever, though I MIGHT be wrong about this (files are removed from a server after a period of 500-1500 days, but then they also ‘migrate’ from server to server). It’s also free, should you decide to use your own ISP’s newsgroup. I understand it’s a good idea using a ‘premium’ newsgroup server for a flat monthly fee, though I’m not sure why yet as am also a newbe to this. There’s a great guide to setting up here if you’re interested http://www.slyck.com/Newsgroups_Guide_NZB_FilesGalavantingcherubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11783479333847277883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3262584283674109553.post-25133622292798720762012-01-24T07:56:11.155-08:002012-01-24T07:56:11.155-08:00Thank you for all your great music over the years....Thank you for all your great music over the years.
