Sad news on this subject.  The majority of free midi sites have closed their doors because of a threatened lawsuit by the Harry Fox Agency.  This agency is trying to "silence" the web by making outrageous financial demands on behalf of music artists. *Wondering if these artists are even aware of what's going on.*

There are still a couple of sites around, and we haven't changed the links on this page, hoping that "like most things nasty and impossible",  this too shall pass.

If not folks, you can look forward to no music on the web ever again (because most web site owners are not prepared to pay the kind of money that is being demanded by this agency.) *Too bad, because in MY humble opinion,  music on line can only make purchases of the artist's work MORE likely.  *Midi files, although not a bad quality, have serious lacks as far as real world quality goes.* And so, on with this section.

Now that you have a home page, you might want to put some music on it.

Right under the line that looks like this in your HTML Editor:
<BODY TEXT="#330000" BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" LINK="#A25100" VLINK="#FFA448" ALINK="#AB5656" BACKGROUND="creamstripe.jpg">
You will place this code:

<bgsound src="yourfilename.mid" AUTOSTART="true" VOLUME="50" LOOP="false" WIDTH=16 HEIGHT=16><EMBED src="your file name.mid" AUTOSTART="true" VOLUME="50" LOOP="false" WIDTH=16 HEIGHT=16></EMBED>

Substitute  yourfilename with the title of the midi file you want playing, and voilà, you have music on your homepage.

Here are some sites to surf to find midis for your home page:

Midi File  Central
More midis than you could ever use!!!  This place has 'em all, and is a Crescendo stream site, so if you have Crescendo, you are in for a quick load!  Plan to spend the day "collecting" midis.

Jack's Shack
Personally, I LOVE this site.  Lots of midi files, all separated by category.  Have fun - this is another "full day's jaunt"

 Classical Midi Archives
Need classical music? This is the place to get it - they have over 3500 midi files in their archives, and some of it is EXCELLENT.  Look for thier recommendations and you can't go wrong.

Josh's Mega Midi Archives
All zipped files here - but they have over 1400 files so take a chance and dowload your favorites.  I'm sure you;ll find something to your liking!

 The Downbeat Café
For jazz new and old style you've gotta' visit this site!  SUPER selection and WHAT a design!

We will update this page as we find new sites on our "surfing" trips. For now, you have enough to keep you busy for a little while!

Have fun!!!
