"Hope" MP3 back online

As of today, you can download Charlie's radio play "Hope Leaves the Theater" from the Audio section of the site. For reasons discussed earlier in the week, there's good news and bad news.

  • Good news: the file is available again, after a two-year break (or thereabouts), for those of you who missed it the first time.
  • Bad news: I'm asking for a small donation, via PayPal, in return for the file. This helps to cover the site's running costs, and will hopefully save me from having to beg for donations occasionally.
  • Good news: it's only five bucks. That's fair, eh?
  • Bad news: if this doesn't work out, the file will disappear again until I can come up with something else.
  • Good news: the file's online! Party party!

I'm assuming this will work without a hitch, but let me know if there are problems. I'm not in the business of ripping you guys off.

The MP3 is 45MB in length, at 89 kBits/s, and the running time is about an hour. More info's available in the post I linked to above, and in the Audio section. EDIT: Once you've signed into PayPal and placed your order, you should receive an email with a link to the file. If you don't receive this email, check your Junk Mail folder. And if you still can't find it, let me know.
