There are several ways of understanding music sharing on the internet : 1) Musicians, professional or otherwise, who wish to make their works heard, not only to their friends but also to a wider audience.
2) Normal people who instead have a nice collection of mp3 files and care not only to share their favorite songs with other people but above all to make their compilation accessible from any PC connected to the internet .
This avoids the work of making copies of mp3 files on USB sticks or in iPod-like players.
To share your favorite music, waiting for online programs not available in Italy such as Google Music, Apple iColoud and Amazon cloud Drive, there are other alternative and similar sites that allow you to share the mp3s that you have on your computer and that allow you to upload online your songs to listen to them from your mobile or other pc .

The site has no limits on the size and quantity of music to be loaded and has apps for Android and iPhone.
Above all, it allows you to listen to mp3 music from any pc connected to the internet.
7) If you have a web space, you can use an online service in Italian, Spreaker .
It allows you to upload music to your webserver automatically and thus share the stream of mp3 files or podcasts from your website, also providing an integrated player.
Spreaker allows you to stream music and audio tracks for free by creating a kind of online radio.

8) Jamendo allows everyone to upload a song (which is licensed) in order to be able to listen to it for free to all users to whom it is shared or who find it.
Jamendo is one of the most popular free and free music sites.
9) Finally, the real pearl for musicians, professionals or amateurs, and those who play and record their own music.
SoundCloud is the world's leading site for sharing and discussing composed and original music .
Music can be uploaded to the site for free and shared privately or publicly, with a limit of 5 tracks per month.
This is a limit but however, since SoundCloud is a space dedicated to those who create music, it is considered that a normal musician cannot compose more than 5 songs in a month.
As it is understood, Soundcloud is not a place to upload songs by famous artists or whose copyright is not owned.
Regular users can discover new groups and new singers or DJs in Soundcloud that produce original and never heard songs.
On Soundcloud there is no need to download anything because you can listen to everything in streaming; however there is a tool for downloading mp3s.
To listen to each track even by organizing the songs into playlists, just click on the song title, without having to make any recording (unless you want to save the playlists).
The only limitation is that this web player shows only some musical genres and not all those available in Soundcloud.
10) Hearthis.at is a sister site of Soundcloud, very similar and alternative, although it is very limited in the free account.
