Hey WordPress, I want my money back!
I have been getting reports that the newest episode is not completing downloads. This is because the wordpress content delivery network (which charges me a fee to allow me to distribute sound files) is a complete failure.
I’ve taken steps to move the files to another hosting solution, and I will start going back and updating the older episodes, starting with episode 11 (in which Frostheim gets cut off while complaining about hunter PvP).
Please excuse the technobabble and the temporary outage.
[edit: the file should come down fine now.]
Ouch. I notice the comment posted on Ep. 11 about the cutoff. I had it happen to me twice, but thought it must have been a problem with my portable Firefox (It has gone crazy on other downloads before). I’m glad you figured it out.
Thanks. I actually discovered a really awesome site for podcast hosting- soundcloud.com is a million times better than the default wordpress hosting, and is free for a weekly podcast.
I posted a comment about this way back (see episode 4 comments) and although my iTunes has been trying every day to download your podcasts, it always fails. I still let it try though in the hope that someday it would work, so I’m glad to hear you’ll be fixing the problem and I can catch up on the old episodes.
Actually, always fails is not strictly correct as one shorter than normal episode did download, but all the rest continue to fail(just wanted to clarify).
Yeah, what made it hard to diagnose was that it works most of the time for most people. Anyways, episode 1 and 11 are switched, and I’ll be switching the older shows as I am able.
