Thread Name: Music Hosting Websites: Alternatives to MySpace
Subject: Alternatives to MySpace
I've got a MySpace page, but I'm not very happy with it for a variety of reasons:
- it looks horrible - it's hard to work with - you can't link to individual songs - ...or comment on songs - ...or tag or categorise songs - also, Murdoch
Do any alternatives spring to mind?
What I want to do: - put recordings up where people can hear them - tag/categorise/organise recordings, e.g. to separate out the trads from the originals from the Bellamys - end up with a page that's easy on the eye and easy to use
What I don't want to do: - make videos - sell tracks - pay (much) money* - join Facebook (I've managed to avoid it thus far)
Any ideas? What have other people used?
*Wordpress charges $20 US per year for uploading MP3s to a blog, which works out at about a pound a month. I'd still rather pay nothing at all if possible!
