mp3's in e-mails

[terrys]

is it possible to add mp3 files containing music attached to an e-mail if so does anyone know what size the biggest attached is allowed

[mattrix100]

Yes it is possible with most email accounts. The largest size also depends on the max attachment size of the email provider

[terrys]

do you know any that let you send attachments of 100mb or more

[wideboy]

Try putting 100mb attachments into Google, it came up with lots. Why have you got a single mp3 of 100MB? This is about 90minutes? A whole album or cassette tape?

Maybe it would be better to zip the file?

Winzip is free to download at www.winzip.com

It compresses the file so making uploading and downloading take less time.

the reoson they're so big is because they are dj mix sets

twonk, mp3's are already compressed so zipping it wouldn't compress it much further.

However, if you use something like WinRAR you can take one 100mb file and break it up into 10 x 10mb files which the recipient (again using WinRAR) can piece together back into one hugely obscenely big mp3 file again.

gmail allows 10mb attachments and gives absolutely tons of space so as well as allowing you to send (and receive) the attachments, you can also archive them online too.
You need an invite to get an account there as far as I know.
