Ask HN: is there an equivalent of imgur for mp3s?

7 points by sroerick 13y ago ↗ HN

I'm trying to embed mp3s on an app that I am building and I'm wondering if any managed services exist to host audio files.

Soundcloud could be ok, but the limits on number of files are kind of a bummer.

My initial release is going to be a very small audience, and the files will be self curated rather than machine curated, so I'm also trying to avoid AWS.

Does HN have any suggestions for a service like this?

https://soundcloud.com/ I guess. I haven't used it, but I come across some of my friends posting their recordings on twitter.

Yeah, soundcloud is OK. Unfortunately, their file limits are frustrating and I'd just as soon launch without their social features.

It's a lot more like flickr than it is imgur.
