A good alternative is to not upload a damn thing, just store it on your computer, and let your friends download from your shared folders with encrypted file-sharing software such as GigaTribe: http://www.gigatribe.com/
That way the cops can spend their time going after murderers, rapists and suicidal ministers!
This is a pretty cool idea...lots of bands collaborate over great distances to get their music out.
I happen to know of an easy (and free) solution that has become very popular with musicians these days. GigaTribe http://www.gigatribe.com/ lets users exchange huge music files (and entire folders of music files). And it's all done within a small private network (like a band), so no one can intercept the encrypted exchanges. There's also a chat window in there, so musicians can explain stuff to each other in real-time.
This, and cheap new recording techniques are making it easier for musicians to collaborate and get their music heard!
