My site is hosted at www-hosting.net and they don't allow mp3. I think it's suck. I am planning to switch another host server. Any suggestion for a good host out there with good support too.

Thanks

Ohh yes, Unlimited Disk Storage, pretty honest huh?:rolleyes:

BTW, most host do not allow MP3 files unless you have the copyright permissions.

As long as you have either permission to use an MP3, or its your own (for example if you're part of a band and making a web site for htis band), most hosts will be happy to host your MP3's.

However, some hosts don't allow any MP3's at all, as they tend to use up quite a bit of bandwidth.

I understand that you are looking for an MP3 host, but if one host doesn't permit it, why do they 'suck' ? Chances are I'll edit your thread title and post. I don't see how it relates to your search.

:) Again, every host will have different policy regarding MP3's
Just send an email and ask them before signing up.

I don't see how a host can suck just because they do not allow the hosting of mp3s. If you would have read their TOS before signing up you could have been aware they do not host mp3s.

I have a site hosted at WHN and the uptime on Wolf has been MUCH better since Gary and the other admins started searching for CGI boards and mp3's on users accounts. If suspending accounts with illegal mp3 files is what it takes to keep the server up, then keep up the good work.
