Where can I put these songs?

Asking for a buddy: Any good places to upload original music to?

My friend is looking for someplace where he can park some songs he's written for others to be able to either download or stream. The tracks are either mp3 or easily convertable to such. As always, free to cheap would be best. He doesn't have a MeFi login, so I haven't suggested MeFi music yet. He's already got a myspace page, but they only allow four tracks at a time. Any suggestions?

I can't see the site from work but as I recall, you can upload songs with the caveat that you review other people songs as well. It may have changed from the time I was a member but it was a pretty cool free service at the time.

It's a little annoying and has lots of ads, but I've used fileden before. There are other sites like this too. You could also suggest that he ask this question on kvr or some such place (actually it's been asked there before if you search).

The jones soda website has a place for this. I don't know much about it other than a friend of mine has posted some of his original stuff there.

The Washington Post hosts music files for local artists. Maybe there's something similar in your area?
