Ok, that's your opinion, I don't share it but I understand you. Nevertheless, IIRC makefreemusic was not accepted that much, and I myself will not support it because of several reasons that have already been stated by me and by others. Also, as far as I can recall, when Toby asked "What's wrong with sourceforge?" he was talking about the hosting, not the domain.

The sharing platform would be located at share.lmms.io or lsp.lmms.io or share.lmms-project.org accordingly. Let's hear some more opinions :-) 2014-04-26 18:51 GMT+02:00 Tres Finocchiaro <[email protected]>: >> The domains you suggested all sound nice, but rather sound like community >> sites, instead of official ones.
