Great name!

Unfortunately this seems like it’s something I’d need to host myself, and that’s something I specifically don’t want to do. I only need to share on occasion, and always want to do it with the least hassle possible.




Yep, and the server bandwidth can become a bottleneck if the peers are fast enough, so true peer-to-peer is still the better choice, or something webtorrent-based if multiple people are grabbing the same file.

But there's been enough last-minute submissions of DJ material by now that I'm still happy it was added as an option :-)
