Tips & Warnings
Sending emails to yourself and then saving them in My AOL is a great way to save files that you know you may need later. If you save them in My AOL, you will have access to them as long as you have access to your AOL account and email. The time it will take to upload a song will vary based on your Internet connection or mode of connection.
