hey, this would solve the problem of placing audio files on the Looper's
Delight page! I've got 20MB there, which can be expanded for $. That can
hold a reasonable amount of audio data, but maybe not enough to have a good
representation of everybody who would like to have their music on it. But
maybe another idea would be to have links from people's bio's on the LD 
site
to the actual sound files on your site. Would that work? You could maybe
help out the less digitally enabled to get their audio into a more netable 
form.
