Uploading songs to mufi is maybe broken? Or maybe it is just me?

Apologies if this is known, I searched and didn't see an announcement anywhere.

There's some wackiness with specific mime-types that we've run into a few times before. This might be that again; if so, Matt can tweak something and you should be good to go.

Have you tried uploading before from the exact same box, OS and browser?

I actually have not; this is the first time uploading from here. I can try a different browser and also a different computer and let you know what happens.

dude, whatever crazy plugin/browser you are using, they programmed in an actual typo. I accept the properly spelled mime-type. I'll add this one, but jeez, I never thought I'd see typos in code go into browsers like that.

Ok, fixed. And we added "featured song" links to any song that showed up in a previous podcast. And the titles on the front page are links into the threads.
