As you are prolly aware the audio aint working (again) lol

Ive decided its time to cut my losses and fuk the directoris space off, its been nothing but a joke there service and been up and down more than a tarts knikkers. With the new site coming on strong I dont want it to be a case of one minute there there n the next there not so im on the prowl for some new webspace.

I need your help thou in testing some space to see how stable it is and to make sure we dont get no annoying buffering and also how quick the space is

so if anyone with a bit of time on there hands could chek the mix ive put on the space im thinking of getting for the mixes etc etc then id b mostly greatful. i just need to know if it buffers or out whilst listening to it - the mix is here

also i need people on quick connections (adsl n up) to see what sorta speeds they can get out of this space for me. right clik n save target as here. if u could let us know whats the maximum u normally getout of ur line n what speed u get n also from the old space here, so i can compare em id b most grateful

cheers

i tried d/l'ing the mixes, but did i have to d/l it all cos if i did then i did it wrong:( :( :( :(

i downloaded them to 35% each...the first 1(new1) run at 60/61KB and the 2nd 1 run at 62/63KB

i will have a listen to the mixes in a minute...if i haven't done it right i can do it again but the rate was constant

mmm strange, unlike everyone else i get the old one to be a lot faster,

new link - 200 kb/s
old link - 400 kb/s


but i guess it all depends on where you are, time etc...

sat on the uk backbone here, can often get 1mb/sec !!
