Not all described files are uploaded already, yet I'd like to announce my new website.
It is mentioned already in my profile on the new CWA website.
I didn't expect this CWA site appearing so soon, I planned to wait with the announcement here till everything would be uploaded.
No way back now, so here it is: http://www.ezsound.nl
Be my guest :smile:

@Virtualstudio, hm, no troubles here, no other reports.
Anyway, I'll keep an eye on it, thanks for telling me :smile:

All files are uploaded now, since saterday tonight.
The first movie on the Movie page shows some glitches and stutters, I must check the source file.
(btw, I used just the intro and the outro of the 20 minutes video).

The site builder kept the video files in low quality, in favor of the sound file quality.
This alas leads to some losses in the video's.
Specially the animation video, also presented on the homepage (Mirror), suffers from this.
Many drawn lines originally are very fine and thin, with the current resolution you even can' see them, which is a pity.
Therefore you also can't see the lines that symbolize the stairs of the long staircase, so it's hard to understand what's happening now and then.

I was a bit disappointed about the video's, but it's all about streaming and bandwidth, I'll have to accept it I guess.

My aim was: having a platform for my music, with very easy access to the files.
I saw many sites of musicians, music labels etc., and I was very surprised about the lack of the actual possibility of listening to music demo's.
So I decided to concentrate on this.

One result was the idea of 'EZRadio', you can listen to 20 minutes of music by just one click plus the play button on the player, on the home page.
BTW, the player uses Quicktime, I like it, I hope you'll agree (I remember a thread on this, it's not everyone's choice).

Disadventage of those 'radio' files: every 20 minute file is another file along with the separate files of the same songs on the EZDance and other two pages.
You can't use the already present songs to construct the radio files from it, using flash streaming.
So I had to move to the pro (500) MB pack at the server host, doubling the costs.

Another problem is the amount of streamed kb's, since a few days it exceeded the permitted amount many many times.
It's all new to me, so I'll have to see if I can hold it this way on the long term.

Thanks for your very positive words, I'm very happy with them, as is the site builder :smile:

I'll have to come here a few times to read everything. Right now I can tell, it's a well desiged site, very understandable, very good looking. The music sounds real well and despite that, it's not too heavy still. All in all, a good place to visit. Well done to you Hubird. :smile:
