Well, it appears my files have been held hostage to money. When I started this blog, the service I was using was free (4shared.com) and it allowed me to bring the music to you w/out requiring you to login or join the service. Now, in order to get that same level of access, I've got to pay them a fee. Well, that's not going to happen! So, until further notice, just know that it is a pain to listen to the blog.  

When you select the music player for the song you would like to hear, it will take you to the service provider that is hosting my files and will require you to create an account with them (which is free, meanwhile) or login if you have an account with them already. (Which is the additional step that is a bit of a pain.) The first song (and who knows how many after that - since I have the "free" version) will be subject to ads. Yippee. Very, very annoying. So, I advise you to just skip it!

When I get a new batch of songs to record and upload, I'll research migrating the entire blog's music files to another provider. There are lots of them out there. I just don't have time to research them at the moment. My latest passion is online courses. So, I'm a bit busy with that project! 

Meanwhile, IF you stumble across this and have some great ideas for free file storage for music files that allows you to share them easily (ie, embed links into a blog post or page), feel free to comment! I'm all ears!

Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience!!!
