I used to use "ultimate guitar"and upload over there , People could listen ,Rate and leave comments on your songs and i enjoyed it al lot .
They stopped all that though , And i was forced to download all my work again .
Was just curious if there are other community sites like that where you can upload your songs and get feedback  ?
 
Oh and of course , It must be free

I noticed a while back that somewhere along the line SoundClick quietly raised its playback quality from 128 kb/s to 160 kb/s for free accounts. Of course, if you want to pay for the privilege you can store your files at any bitrate you like.

I must admit that I like SoundCloud myself. I'm not bothered about changing the order of my tracks and I'm not that prolific so I have plenty of "time" left on the clock. So I'm a free member.
 
I had an e-mail a week ago from Scott Stambaugh from "Indie Music People." They used to be "IAC" and before that I think they used to be Artistlauch, which I started using when MP3.com went a bit strange. I've not a clue what they're like though and I'm going to take a closer look...

I started a reverbnation page yesterday. But I went to upload my latest toon to that site and they have a limit of 8gb per song, so now I have to either make shorter tracks or convert to a lower bitrate. Not impressed...

Soundcloud for me.  It seems to be the most widely used platform besides YouTube.

I used to be an YouTube guy all the way but I noticed I kind of felt like obligated to put also some video clip with the tunes and I started to feel pressure to put good quality video there and I don't have much of that. Also I don't like to put other people's videos with my music so Soundcloud and Soundclick are good as they don't even allow you to put video in there so less pressure. I only use Soundcloud now unless I find good video material on my hard drives. I know I have some bird videos but I am not sure if it is good with my tunes. Now I have not uploaded any stuff for a couple of months because I have had some problems with getting started when I have time so music making on the computer has been minimal. I have been doing a lot of humming but most of that stuff is not usable. But soon I will probably have something good enough that I can send. I almost sent one song today but ultimately the song was not good enough to put online. I trust my latest tunes of which I have only a rough versions ready, will make the grade. I forgot to say that I partly hate the humming work because it ain't 100 % certain that my hummings get on the phone clearly. Every now and then the sound gets distorted and it also happens that the whole humming gets rendered into a one kilobyte corrupted file and usually I cannot make another recording of the same tune because what I do is almost always pure improvisation and I have a bad memory so I am kind of screwed in those instances. I should buy a digital voice recorder but I am kind of unwilling to part with my monies. I am also worried that my phone gets stolen and somebody makes some good songs out of my material.

I've been using YouTube. We live in an all digital, short-attention-span world. People won't sit still for an audio playback of a three-minute song. It's pretty easy to generate a slide show to go (vaguely) with a song. My friends will then listen to the whole song, thinking they are watching a movie. Otherwise they'd be clicking around the internet while my song plays, basically just waiting for it to be over. It would be better, of course, if my songs were more compelling, but until then, smoke and mirrors.
