Thank you for the response. I read on a few forums that storing it on the public file is better because it reduces databases access time which may eventually slow done the entire application. As I would be working with a lot of mp3 files is there anyway I can store them in folder that can be protected because Mysql does not handle the blob format very well and I am unable to get it retrieve it with the same quality. Can mp3s be stored in mysql in any other way like binary format and retrieved without loss of quality. Thank you again. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
