Hi,

What would be good Modules to use for such a task?? -- For those who are experienced in Drupal, what would be the way you would set this up?

I am relatively new to Drupal, but am Learning.

I have lots of MP3 lectures which I want to share with my community. They will be of various subjects and speakers.

what would be a good way of having those in my drupal website? Should I simply upload them each in seperate pages? or is there a better way of organising and displaying them??

Basically, I want a download section for Mp3s. If there is streaming that is good too, I guess can be done by putting a M3u file.

I hope someone can give me a headsup on what would be the best way to setup mp3 sharing. .

To the helpful members who contribute to this thread, thank you !!!!

Multiple methods.

A) you can use the audio.module

B) you can use the CCK.module to create your own lecture content type,
the mediafield.module to allow uploading of audio to this content type
then taxonomy.module (part of core) to orgaize these lectures into categories. you can then expand on these types of lists using the views.module

I am sure there are other methods, I've not mentioned. Figuring out which method you would want to incorporate into your site will require some sweat and tears on your part. I suggest checking out the media category of the downloads area and begin testing your ideas.

I would probably set it up as a podcasting site. Check out
