How to Get Music Into Blogspot
Blogspot is a hosting service for weblogs that allows anyone to create a free blog. Blogspot handles the uploading and hosting of many files, including images, but hosting music files and displaying them on your Blogspot blog is not as straightforward. With the help of another hosting service, you can embed a music file directly into a post on your Blogspot page and even give visitors the ability to pause and control the music if they wish.
