My download speed is at 1.5 kb/ps now. Says 5 hours. Most of the time I download it in less than 30 sec.

Download Link Free Upgrade?

Is 3.313 a free upgrade? My account page shows that my download link for Hoster expires later this month but the link only shows a download for 3.312 which I am already using. I have not seen any e-mail about the upgrade, maybe it got caught in my spam filter.

Hoster 3.313

I to got an e-mail and it looked funny but I tried the link and it worked. I have always been able to down load it around 3 1/2 minutes and it was the same for this version. When I tried to install and transmitting data to MTU, my computer locked up . I restarted the computer and tried several more times with the same result. I then tried to contact MTU and it was 4:10 pm central time and there was nobody home. I was unable to get my older version of Hoster to work because the install had already started. Tried to reinstall older version and same thing happened when it was trying to tranmit back to MTU. I did a computer restore so I can get the show done this weekend but the program would not let me load any more songs. My data base for the disk brands and disk ID was not working. I did try the free data base on one disk and it came back with some info and when I tried to select all to load I kept getting a error where Hoster needed to shut down. A couple things I would like to see: Live help for the rest of the country especially on the weekends when most of us have shows and instant online help so that troubles can be addressed. IE find out if it is our problem or MTU's problem.

Always Install ANY version of HOSTER OFFLINE with a FLOPPY or DATASTICK. Save EACH and EVERY VERSION's install on a SEPARATE Floppy/Datastick along with EVERY Version of Hoster.

That way, if you need to reinstall ANY VERSION of HOSTER, you DO NOT EVER need to be ONLINE to do it.

I suggest a DATASTICK. For instance...With current versions, Hoster installs to a HOSTER FOLDER. Well, each NEW VERSION "OFFLINE" INSTALL would cause the PREVIOUS Version info to be OVERWRITTEN.

So, once you perform a DATASTICK OFFLINE INSTALL, and a HOSTER FOLDER is established, RENAME the HOSTER FOLDER to say HOSTERv3312.

Then, when performing a NEW VERSION INSTALL, Hoster WILL NOT see a HOSTER FOLDER and CREATE one.

Continue to RENAME these FOLDER FOR EACH VERSION.

COPY the ALL HOSTER.EXEs onto the Datastick.

This way, if you need to INSTALL ANY VERSION again, simply RENAME the HOSTER FOLDER, of the version that your want to Install, back to HOSTER, double click the Hoster.exe that corresponds to the renamed HOSTER FOLDER, and finish the INSTALL. YOU NEVER NEED TO BE ONLINE TO INSTALL THIS WAY.

I can't imagine NOT having this as a BACKUP way to install!!

The only case that this will not work, is when your Computer Fails and you try to install on a different computer...then, unfortunately, you will need MTU interaction.
