Free Hosting For MP3 Mixes

After having a look around for a good place to host my MP3 mixes and tracks for free, I came across http://www.orbitfiles.com. The good thing about this service is that they provide 1GB (which is more than enough for 15 one hour MP3 mixes, encoded at 160kbps) of free storage, unlimited file sizes (so uploading that 2 hour mix of yours shouldn't be a problem! But the maximum mix length I've uploaded is 65 minutes), but most importantly, they keep your mix forever, i.e. without deleting it after a month or so like most other services.

Only problem with Orbitfiles is that they don't provide a direct link to your MP3. So you'll have to go to a webpage from where you can download. They do this so that they can advertise on the webpage and make some money out of it. Although having no direct link is fine in most cases, if you want to stream your MP3 file from, say Webjay (which is what I'm using -- see the little MP3 player on the left), you'll have problems, as the Webjay streamer requires a direct link to the MP3. In this case, you can become a paying customer at Orbitfiles, and pay US$10/year (which is very reasonable compared to some other services) to get the direct link, and much more -- including 10GB of storage space!
