Have contacted mypodcast.com but I think we all know by now that they won't respond (they still haven't addressed the fact that all download stats are frozen).

Anybody have any other ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Bob, I have tried several times with different bit rates, and failed. they key is that for some reason, the application I am using (Audacity) was set to 44100 for project bit rate, while the output media file was not !
I would suggest that you go to the windows explorer and right click on the file and check properties. Check both the bit rate and the Audio sample rate. the bit rate should be 98 and the sample rate should be 44100. I have uploaded today with no issues 128Kbps and audio sample rate 44Khz

mypodcast.com is a terrible website. It keeps saying my mp3 files are not mp3 files. Can anyone suggest a better website to host podcasts?

Thank you.

I have been having issues like that as well over the weekend so far.

Something fishy is going on here.

This same thing happened to me last week! The problem seemed to go away after a week.
