AudioSafe - Online Backup of your Music Collection

Hey guys,

I came across this today.. It's currently in beta but it's a great idea. It's called Audiosafe. Basically what you do is you upload your entire music collection to a cloud (no size limit) & should your drive ever go on you, you pay a fee to download it back again. The policy is what I'd be cautious of but it seems ok as it currently stands. Definitely one for the DJs.

Thoughts?

Here's Something better:

You can upload all your music up to 20,000 songs for the cost of FREE with all your album artwork and tags unchanged and download them back all for the cost of FREE *unlimited* amount of times at Google Music --> www.music.google.com . E-mail your Serato Folder as an attachment to yourself for the cost of FREE and BOOM you covered your backup.

I've also made a blog post on Cloud Storage last year because there wasn't much information available on the internet in one place for people searching on reliable companies who provide such services, descriptions, benefits and a general information to the public about Cloud Storage specifically Music Cloud Storages since it's a music blog that is --> www.gregoryguerrier.com

My man Gregory! Thanks for the info :)
Had a peep there but unfortunately Google Music is restricted to your side of the pond (I'm based in Ireland) but from what you've written above it looks pretty good! Does that include high quality files such as .wav & .aiff?

Also on another note, I'm loving your website! :)

Aww I checked and seen that's the downfall, they don't support the following filetypes: .wav / .aiff / .r / ALAC or .m4p

The filetypes they do support are: .mp3 (^to 320kbps) / .m4a (** aac) / .wma / .flac or .ogg

It seems like the paid Cloud Services such as DropBox, Google Drive, SkyDrive, iCloud are more suitable for your needs.

Well it's not me who needs anything, I was just suggesting it to other members as an option for backing up music collections!
