heh, depending on what else is happening, a LAN connection can be just as bad.

An ftp program is for transfering files from one computer to another (usually from your own computer to an offsite host). It's only good in that it makes transfers faster than through http (through the browser).

AOL is an ISP and a host. Most hosts with good speeds you need to pay for.

Dialup is not normally fast enough to listen to streaming media.

Thanks for the input...i appreciate it. Any ideas as to where i should upload it to?? Like i said i uploaded it onto aol in my ftp space .... but are there other sites where i can do this?? Also, i was just curious, would an ftp program help me out? What are those anyways?

Winamp and buffering.. then its got to be a connection issue as DaveyBoy pointed it out. The server you are uploading must be very slow/busy and must be serving the song at a very low speed. This causes winamp to play the song and then redownload the next segment and caching it before it proceeds.

Regards,

i uploaded it to aol.... and aol is pretty slow.....what about those ftp programs that can be downloaded from the net...what are those for? will that work?

hmmm yeah shouldn't be that reason then, maybe the server you uploaded it to is either too busy or to slow? It's definitely a speed issue i'd say.

not quite sure if thats it since im on a T1 connection. I even restarted my computer just in case resources were low, but got the same result.

Probably because your internet connection isn't fast enough to stream the audio.
