			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are a lot of music related websites out there, and some are a lot better than others.  From <a title="Spotify" href="http://www.spotify.com" target="_blank">Spotify</a> - a new free web service that allows you to stream all the latest popular music to your computer &#8211; to <a title="Last FM" href="http://last.fm" target="_blank">last.fm</a> &#8211; where you can keep tabs on all the tracks you&#8217;ve played and chat in a community with users of similar taste.</p>
<p>However, there are few, if any, music sites available that are similar to <a title="YouTube" href="http://www.youtube.com" target="_blank">YouTube </a>in a way that offer simple upload capabilities to users and then stream that music to the websites users.  This is why I created <a title="BeatSpot - Upload and share music" href="http://www.beatspot.co.uk" target="_blank">BeatSpot</a>.</p>
<p><a title="BeatSpot - Upload and share music" href="http://www.beatspot.co.uk" target="_blank">BeatSpot</a> is designed to allow music artists to share their tracks online for free.  There are no adverts (yet, I may add some if bandwidth costs grow) and no subscription costs.  Users are able to come onto the website and access all of the tracks for free without a sign up.  Additional functionality is available to users who wish to sign up, such as playlist capabilities, a pop-out music player (which I&#8217;m very proud of), private messaging and subscriptions to users updates.</p>
<p>I wll be adding RSS feeds shortly as well as promoting it with some AdWords, so stay tuned.</p>
