I've had this site up since Oct.. and look what I just got as an email from my hosting company:

Dear Carrie,
At this point it appears that you are using just over 38 gigs of transfer per month and just under 450 megs of web space complete. You may wish to consider looking for your own server in the near future at the rate that you're growing. If you decide to do that please notify us in advance and we will gladly help you in any way that we can to make the transition go as smoothly as possible.

You should be able to get a decent server for about $99 per month, which you could offset by sub-leasing some of the space once you got used to things
$99 per month?! shit.

thanks guys! thanks mrs. clayton- yeah I dont want to have to do something like that or banners.... I'm going to speak with people at work and see if they have any cheaper alternatives! it might just be no hosting music but I'd imagine it's only a matter of time before all that space fills up.. lol i'm insane.
at least i'm not the only one!

So... an update for all you interested. I think what's come of this is I can't host songs (or as many as I do- almost50!)

and this way I'll be able to keep the cost down. Else I'll have to pay a lot more money or buy another machine and host it myself (which I think is what Elvis can do) and this way I can keep Take Me Higher. Maybe I'll buddy up with people with FTP sites and just offer those resources on my site for music. That might be a good alternative, or signing up w/ morpheus and sharing my name for people to download themselves.. only problem w/ that is i'm scared of viruses as I got two from kazaa.
