Avoiding Snail Mail (PLN)

This week on my PLN I saw an article that I found really helpful. It is from musictechtips blog, and it discusses how to avoid sending audio and video files through email. The author suggests using a file sharing website rather than emailing large files, and I found that to be a really great suggestion. As a musician, I may someday have to send sample audio to prospective clients (e.g., for a wedding). This would be a simple way to get that to them without having to email cumbersome files.

  2. I hadn't really thought about it before. I thought that it was kind of a hassle to have to refer people to a third-party site in order to share files. However, with the size of many audio files especially, I can see how this could be useful.

  3. File sharing can be very helpful for learning audio files that need to be shared with several people. It makes the process much easier than sending individual emails or snail mail.
