Look into a service, such as http://www.fast-serv.com , that allows DNAS sourcing from a directory.

Computer services don't run well when the computer is turned off.

While I may be terse at times, I try not to be sarcastic.

Whatever remote service you have, you'll need to install the DNAS and sc_trans (to source the DNAS from a directory).

Do you have remote (shell, telnet, ssh, ...) access?

still on demand requires a server to be on, either way if your not hosting it; it'll cost money on your behalf, there is no such thing as a truly free host.

DJ HotIce has a point, it would be hard to find a free host that will give you enough space for multiple mp3's.

leavin the computer on wont significantly alter your power bill...mines always been on for about 5 years with hardly ever turning it off and it doesnt affect anything...
