Thank you guys. Actually, I don't have the web site set up yet, but I hope to do it soon. I am on Comcast, which has an "easy" site set up option which I've been messing around with. I still don't understand enough about the process to complete it, but I'm studying the thing. I did check out the comcast net storage info, which seem to make a fair amount of sense to me. When I do want to transfer a file, e.g., foo.mus, what format does it have to be in .. e.g., MP3, or what?
That depends on what you want your millions of adoring web-site visitors to do with it -- if you just want them to hear it, then upload it as an mp3 file, but keep the bit-rate low because of bandwidth issues. Most hosts have a maximum amount of upload/download bandwidth allowable per month, and that's easily maxed out with audio files.
If you want people to be able to view the music, maybe edit it a bit, then post it as a .mus, but be warned that people can then download it and do anything with it using Notepad or PrintMusic or Finale.
If you want people to be able just to view the music, save it as a PDF file and upload that.
So the format you use is really dependent on what you want your visitors to be able to do with it.
