Best way to deliver 15+ mp3 audio files to customers?

Hi guys... I have a new product about to be released. I want to deliver 15-20 audio mp3 files to people. Normally, I use DLG and zip things up into a file. However, the file is too large to host on my cpanel. So, what are your recommendations for delivering these files?

I did upload them to Amazon s3 also. However, if I use s3, what is the easiest way to send them to people? Do I just put the links in a PDF and send it?

Please give me some simple steps I can take for delivering these downloads without having to buy membership software or anything else right now.

    You can still use DLG with amazon s3. Just put in the link to the file into DLG. DLG will help then to hide it's origin.

    I was just going to say the same thing as garyv. Host on Amazon, use DLG as per normal. Problem solved and very secure from your end. Nobody will ever be able to see the file URL.

      So am I putting the link to the whole bucket then?

    Make an html page with the links on.
    I don't think you'll be able to link to the entire bucket.

    In regards to your question...

    Best way to deliver 15+ mp3 audio files to customers?
    The best way to deliver them is in the way that your clients prefer to consume them.

    I think one of the best ways is to deliver them is in a premium podcast with a one click iTunes button.

    This way you can sync all the files instantly with iTunes so that the files can be downloaded automatically and played on their desktop or synced easily with their iPod, iPhone, or iPad.

    Additionally consider offering that one click iTunes subscription option with the secure download integration so that your end user has a choice as to how they prefer to obtain the files.

    You could also add to that a membership area where the files are available for instant play via embedded audio buttons.

    Finally you can upsell them on an on demand print CD version of your audio product...

    Or you could just include all options in the checkout price.

    What does this approach do?

    It increases perceived value, increases likelyhood that your product gets consumed, and if your product is consumed increases the potential you have for repeat purchases from your buyers.

    This is one of the philosophies that drove us to create our Nancast platform to be able to automate all those forms of delivery in a single transaction.

    Our platform integrates directly with your Amazon s3 account and amazon s3 file security.

      Josh- Thanks for the info. This is my first big product and the first with anything other than an ebook, so the iTunes idea is a little over my head right now. I would love to do Nanacast, but that will have to be next on my list after I get a little increase in my budget.
