Public Service Announcement

Dear readers:

If you want to share something I post with others, PLEASE DO NOT LINK DIRECTLY TO THE MP3S I AM SHARING. I am actually paying for my web space/bandwidth out of my own pocket, and when you do this, you are stealing my bandwidth and space and potentially making me have to pay more than I already do. This is a problem because I am an unemployed (for now) college graduate and don’t have extra cash to throw around. The very least you can do is link to my blog or a particular post so that I am at least getting potential readers out of it, or upload the song to rapidshare or a similar file sharing service.

Thank you,
Taylor / t-sides

    Your host *should* give you the option of blocking hotlinking — I know mine does. Anybody who thinks they’re giving a direct link to the mp3s I host is really just sending their visitors to my blog.

    If you need help figuring out how to configure this stuff, just send me an e-mail and I’ll do what I can…
