FTP ?
I dont know what it stands for either. Good idea though. I have got some rare stuff and i will upload it when i work out how and i have time.
Any requests?

Good work with the FTP, TOSCS. Downloaded some stuff I don´t have. I´m far from being a computer genius so how do I upload tracks. Can someone help me please.

Just uploaded one show, more to come....

Like yourself Iam no computer genius, far from it . So maybe some one else can explain it better , but here goes.
To upload right click on the file you want from the local site/ your list of files and it should up load into the romote site/ftp into the file selected .
To download is the reverse of the above. To download right click on the file you want from romote site/ftp and it should down load into the local file into the file selected .

Peter C. Kühne has also just set up a ftp ,log in details below.

Thanks toscs for setting this up'i've one or two bootlegs i can upload if i can work out how to do it, if its as easy as the download is on my mac (drag and drop) it'll be done tonight

An amusing Mac technique that can be used for FTP sites is:

1) In Finder pull down the Go menu
2) Select Connect To Server
3) In the Server Address you can specify an FTP site like this:

ftp://site.address.tld/

(where site.address.tld is the name of the site you want to load).

If a password is needed then you can use the form of:

ftp://UID:PASS@site.address.tld/

4) Bonk on the Connect button

The specified FTP site should now magically appear on your desktop as though it were a mounted network drive. Interact with it the same way you would any other Finder window.

Mac's RULE- Thanks DZM

DzM, you have done something that I've long thought was impossible. You've managed to explain to someone as tech-illiterate as me how to make this thing work on my Mac. You are a genius. Thank you. And thanks TOSCS.
