Your second link ("Is this better?") went to a page listing both files.
Rather than fiddle with third-party sites like Acid Planet, I pay about seven bucks per month for my own site with unlimited traffic. The plan was originally five bucks per month with a free traffic allowance of more than I ever used, but the hosting service ditched that plan and came up with the current plan which is why I have no reservations about posting links to big sound files at the highest quality the encoder in Audacity or Windows Media Player will support. (although I suspect those on dial-up look at the size of the file and say screw that)
With your own site, you have a lot more control over what you can do. You can post files in both WMA and MP3 format at whatever quality you want, and it is very simple for people to click on a link and play it with their preferred player they have on their PC. I suppose one drawback to doing it that way is people can download the file to their PC if that is something you would rather they not do.
I guess I have to credit to the unlimited traffic allowance for permitting the wife and I to run a thriving dorn business.
