Get your own webspace (costs money) an html editor, which could be a simple drag-and-drop or a fullblown editing/publishing suite -- and publish your songs there as stream only if that is what you want to do. Typically must be done by imbedding a Player of some kind into the page.

Downside is that you may have less traffic, but in time with good material that can change literally overnight on the internet. Privately published works occasionally have "gone viral" like that. Many artists get around by publishing a small work or two on the "open" free sites like Soundclick, etc. -- and provide a LINK to their private webpage where interested people can then hear more songs, purchase same, etc. -- a good option IMHO.

Then there is the "mpu" format. Some of those aforementioned sites may work with the .mpu, which is a way to keep the download from being done yet still allow playback from the page.

We can lock the gate, but that won't prevent you from being copied and sold in Russia, man. I found out that I had a small hit over there a few Christmases back. Only thing about that was that I didn't get recognition nor money for it (grin).
