How to Upload a Mix Tape to Facebook
Only one way exists to directly upload audio files to Facebook and requires that you have setup a Facebook page already. The "Music Player" app developed by Facebook lets you upload MP3 files of no more than a 15 MB maximum. If your mix tape is less than 15 MBs then you can upload the entire thing in a single session. But if the mix tape is greater than 15 MBs, then you will have to upload each song individually or break the recording in separate parts.
