Hi guys. For a long time we recommended Dropbox for all sorts of files and had directions for a couple different ways to do things... but over time some of these services have changed how they do things- dropbox is breaking links now, and old workaround to stop autoplay from browser to browser are going haywire. That's leaving archived pages with broken links and autoplaying mp3s. What I'm think is putting up a tutorial on how to turn mp3s to video (it's pretty simple) and encourage everyone to use YouTube for any audio and video. That should future proof us a bit, but before I do that, I want to brainstorm and ask if anyone has any other ideas.

I'm also going to have to go back and find old links. There are a few html tags I may be able to use to filter the search with. In most cases I will deactivate the html for players that are malfunctioning, but I'll try to keep the original link so if the file is still there people can still access it.

I briefly used another file storage site that disappeared with my files. I have gone to using YouTube when I post audio rather than have separate accounts for audio and video.
