EZ ARCHIVE UPDATES

If any of you check blogs regularly, you probably encounter the irregular hosting service known as EZ Archive. As that seems to be the mp3 hosting service of choice, you have inevitably known the bad links that come with it as well as the site being down for hours or days at a time with no mention as to why.

WELL, hopefully all that will be fixed soon. They are 'upgrading' and that requires the bloggers to re-register, re-post links, etc, etc. They said that audio files would play at a lower quality but I have yet to hear what that is. I made the transition at the end of last week and thought everything was running smoothly until I recently checked out the mp3 links and keep getting some foreign voice telling me "We're sorry. This account has been very popular today and has reached the maximum transfer amount allowed. Please check back tomorrow." WTF!?

I will be looking into this soon and either changing providers or upgrading.

UPDATE: Looking through the stable of blogs I check, it appears Ez Archive has screwed the entire cottage industry of blogging over and everyone is having a exodus of EZ and their new, 'upgraded', awful services. I am considering changing to these providers: zSHARE, FileDen, FileLodge and Box.net. Hopefully I will find a service that allows direct linking instead of sites like YouSendIt that are great but you have to go to a extra site to download.

if ANYONE can make a suggestion on the above providers or a different one, please leave a comment.
