I took a look at my website statistics yesterday and discovered that I’d already used up 73% of my bandwidth for this month! After poking around a bit, I found out the reason.
Some websites have been hotlinking my music. On the one hand, I’m like, Excellent! because someone actually wanted to do that. On the other hand, I’m like Bogus! because I have to have my bandwidth for my own stuff too.
So I enabled hotlink protection for music files on my site. You can still listen to all of my music by putting the link to the song directly in your browser (or by clicking on it through this website like normal), but it will no longer be possible to hotlink them from another site. Should save me some bandwidth…but we shall see.
If anyone has any problems accessing the music from this site, feel free to comment on this entry to let me know.
