Best way to share music?

And by best, I mean simplest.
I have a Boss BR 1600 that I had not touched in about 10 years until recently. I have recorded some things I just want to share with friends now and was wondering, other than burning a cd for them, what is the best way to share this? I am thinking I have seen sites that allow you to upload a music file so that you can send a link to anyone you want to share with. But - I don't remember those sites or where I saw them.
BTW - I was thrilled with the way my Sho-Bud LDG played through a Roland Cube 80x and recorded with a SM 58 sounded. Captured that glassy, crisp Sho-Bud sound.
thanks for your help!

I share one of two ways.
I record the song, convert it to an mp3 and then email it to whomever.

I record the song, convert it to mp3 and upload it to picosong and then tell the person the url and where it is.
It's free and easy to use and you can store it there forever.

I like picosong, too. People can listen to your file on the site or download it to their computers or phones. Uploads are free, but there are two things to remember if you use the site. One, unlike most sites, the picosong URL is case-sensitive. Two, when you upload the song, they give you a URL to edit or delete your song. Be sure to save that URL as I know of no way to get that that info later.
Here's one of mine: http://picosong.com/j6f

HTH. Have Fun! Enjoy!

Reverbnation.com is another place to store and share.

You can also get a free SOUNDCLOUD account

Upload your song then just tell everyone where it is or post a link .

Just keep in mind that when you UPLOAD a song to ANY of the streaming sites, it is reduced to an MP3 with a max of 16KHZ hi end. If possible UPLOAD a wav file to allow for a better quality .
