Question

I’ve been toying with the idea of posting a “Rembetika of the Month/Ρεμπέτικο του Μηνός” entry as a way of sharing some of my favorite Rembetika tunes and also some of my old 78rpms that I plan to digitize. Rembetika refers to the urban Greek blues (though some aficionados have begun to critique this designation) that achieved widespread popularity during the interwar period and Second World War in Greece and among the Greeks of the Diaspora. If you like the bouzouki and songs about hashish, then Rembetika is for you.

However, I’m not aware of any free online hosting service that allows one to store unlimited music files, something akin to YouTube, but for music rather than video. Does anyone out there know of such a site? Most of the music hosting sites I’ve found, like Angelfire and Ripway have either upload limits or download limits (or both). I suppose I don’t mind paying, but I’m tempted to think that if there are video hosting sites out there that offer unlimited hosting for free, then there must be similar sites for music. Can anyone help?
