I refuse to use Sound Click, to they are not an option. Any system with close to non existent support will never see me on it. Their FAQs are terrible and they never answer emails.
Where else cam I put songs not for sale but just so you guys can access them? I no longer have a web page of my own, thus no place to host files. I do have a Dropbox account but don't know how to share that with general public, only with specified users. Same with box.net, when you want to share you have to give the email address of those you want to share with. Google Docs is the same way.
I don't want to set up a store, have 75 people annoying me with emails about how they are going to help me advertise... none of that BS. I just need a place to put 2 songs so I can link you folks to them.
Suggestions?
I am using the new 1040XTRAEZ form this year. It has just 2 lines.
1. How much did you make in 2023?
2. Send it to us.

Do you have any free webspace from your internet provider? That might provide room for a couple of MP3s.

Bob, thanks; Sound Cloud looks interesting. It has good statements on content requirements being the user's original music, and not permitting uploading of copyrighted material of others.
Eddie, I agree, Sound Click is sometimes not easy to work with.

I actually revived the web space on my ISP to use for this. The 2 songs I posted just now I just tossed onto that space.
And just went to Sound Cloud and that is the winner. Easy to use.

SoundCloud does also have probably the best user interface for others to comment on your songs. It's been my favorite for nearly 2 years. There widgets work well in other websites as well such as Facebook.

I realize you don't want to use box.net, but it seems to fill the bill. I've been using it as a beta tester for Pianoteq; I simply put up the file on box.net, and post the link in the beta testers forum.
Like this:

It's not me playing, but a MIDI file I found on the internet I converted to wave/mp3.
I use it because I can limit who sees it - either by posting the link on a forum like this, or e-mailing the link to a friend (even the mp3 files are too large to send by e-mail).

Google docs. Very simple and no hassles. The big difference though is you have to provide the link to your material.

I have a Reverbnation account as well. They spam me every couple days about potential gigs I could be playing at all the way across the country.

Like Scott, I get lots of useless email from Reverbnation. I think their popularity has come and gone: not much user traffic that I can see compared to two years ago.

Reverbnation is a great place if you only want other musicians to like you. You can set your emails to not receive anything .

The snag with Google Docs is having to know who wants to listen in order to mail them a link.
With box.net I could not find ow to put the songs there to stream but not be downloaded. Their online help is worthless, their help desk is snotty and condescending.
Sound Click told they were happy to remove my account and I should not email them any more. Apparently Shiquonda was offended by my choice of verbage. (I am NOT a shrinking violet...)
So Sound Cloud it is. Streaming via a link, no downloading.

The other snag with Google Docs is that it downloads the file to your Google Docs folder. Most of the time I don't want these song files as keepers... I just want to listen to them, or to part of them.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
Convenient Ways to Listen to Band-in-a-Box® Songs Created by Program Users!
The User Showcase Forum is an excellent place to share your Band-in-a-Box® songs and listen to songs other program users are creating!
There are other places you can listen to these songs too! Visit our User Showcase page to sort by genre, artist (forum name), song title, and date - each listing will direct you to the forum post for that song.

This page has SoundCloud built in, so it won't redirect you. We've also added the link to the Artists SoundCloud page here, and a link to their forum post.
