Would using Dropbox be OK? The zipped files are each over 800Mb!
What kind of files are they?
The original files are all .WAV, as produced by Audacity. The sizes are in the region of 1 - 2Gb. When compressed with 7-Zip (for example) they are not much smaller - perhaps 50% reduction despite the program saying it has achieved aprox 90% compression ratio. I would be happy to try another approach if you can suggest one.
I realise I could convert all the wav files to flac and only use those, but as they worked in 8.0.2 I am now wondering if there is an MPD-related issue.
Thanks
