Ask HN: Cloud music site where I can stream my own music?
7 points by kf on Dec 16, 2010 | hide | past | favorite | 8 comments
I just got my CR-48 and am very pleased. I know there are a bunch of web apps where I can pay $10/month to stream a very large library of music, but I have a peculiar collection encoded very well and would rather stream my own music. Is there a decent app where I can pay money to upload my music to the cloud?



You could get a VPS and run a streaming app. There are lots of free apps and my VPS costs me $4 a month, with more storage, speed and bandwidth than you need for that.


I have a VPS and guess I could do that... still seems like there should be a commercial service that does this by now.


if you want to do this, I have heard good things about: http://www.tonido.com/.

otherwise, grooveshark lets you upload files and then you could listen to them, not sure what the usage limits or copyright issues are.


What is this $4/month VPS that you speaketh of? The cheapest that I know is $5/month by prgmr.com.


Mine's from hostrail.com, you can use lowend60 to get 60% off for life.


lowendbox.com features good deals on VPSs. Mine is 3 bucks a month.


Try Psonar.

Disclosure: they're based here in Cambridge UK and have friends who work with them.
