Actually, it’s more than just that.Box is more of an online file sharing site that gives you the power to

- Upload any file type
- Store,Stream,Blog or just share the files to anyone
- Email friends your files
- Directly blog about the files(supported on blogger,type pad,live journal and wordpress based)
- Widget for your blog that will show your shared files

This is an excellent utility and here are the various possibilities i found with this tool.

Use it as an online music database and maintain a strong follwer group.
Since Box offers simple and easy(Web 2.0 concepts yeah!) user interface, uploading files(i mean many of them) is just a cakewalk and you’ll love doing it.If you are on of those ardent music collectors, all you have to do is add files continuously to your account,and as and when you have a new music file added you can share it with others simply by submitting their email id and box will notify them of the update.Better,maintain a yahoo group or so with all your fans as members, and you can let them all know about the new addition by sending a single mail to all.This is a better alternative to Rapidshare/Megashare and all those existing file upload methods where the end-user experience is miserable.

Create an online music streaming blog
And we have an advantage here - It let’s you stream the files directly from your blog. Yippe! Great idea huh? Just add the widget by pasting the code in your blog or even blog directly from box(currently blogger is supported)and let the widget appear in it. users can play the music files directly from the box widget and the streaming quality is simply great that any other recent online streaming plugins/widgets i’ve tried.

Box provides 1Gb of free space as of now and you have the options to upgrade as well.
So, online streaming radio - music collection, music station, mp3 downloads, or a music lover community - you decide, Box is an excellent tool to help you.
