like images users should be able to upload their songs
to the boards webspace.

There are a few reasons why there is no function to upload mp3's.

1. Legality issues - but these vary on country to country. So, the linking method was used instead.

2. Another reason is PHP upload restriction limits, normally these are set to around 2Mb or 4Mb (host dependent). In some cases this can be changed using a php.ini or .htaccess file edit, but not all hosting companies allow their clients to do this, with their server setups.

These are the main reasons why the linking approach was preferred, over uploading of mp3's which would also cause strain on some servers, with high-traffic.
