Of course you can always use the simple <embed src="yourmusic.mp3"></embed> html code, but you will need to install the Apple QuickTime plugin to play it on your browser.
On the other hand, nowadays Adobe Flash is almost omnipresent in all computers. Coupled with the increasing usage of Dropbox, BooMP3 is a light-weight & free flash MP3 player that allow you to embed MP3 uploaded to your Dropbox account into your blog/website.
The Main page of BooMP3
Embedding using BooMP3 follows 5 simple steps:
Step 1: Register at Dropbox
Oh ya! Do use the link above, cos Dropbox says: "For every friend who joins Dropbox, we'll give you BOTH 500 MB of bonus space!"
Step 2: Optional but highly recommended: Login with Facebook
With an registered account, you can better keep track of your uploaded files
like this
Step 3: Upload an mp3 file to your Dropbox
1. Go to Dropbox website
2. Go to the 'Public' folder
3. Click "Upload" and upload your mp3 file
Step 4: Copy it's public URL
1. Go to Dropbox website
2. Find your mp3 file
3. Hover your mouse over it and click small blue down-pointing triangle ▼
4. Click "Copy public link"
Step 5: Paste the link at the text field
and click 'Save'
And there you have it, a flash MP3 player for your blog/website.
Just copy and paste the html code. If you want, you can tick the checkbox □ for Autoplay and Loop. You can even create playlists for your uploaded songs.

Great how-to! I've just put a link to it on boomp3.com main page:)
Wow! It is an honour.
and thanks for creating such a wonderful web application.
Como eu faço para colocar várias musicas de uma só vez, tipo um playlist.
Thanks for visiting. View my next post for method of adding songs to playlist.
It's definitely not the best way, but that's what I can think of now with my limited knowledge of html.
Is there a way to lower the volume?

Just stumbled across your blog, but learned about Boomp3 last summer.
I signed up for the dropbox referral party thing, shared a few songs, and got a few clicks... and it lasted less than two weeks.
Last click was July 24. When trying to register anew, Boomp3 tells me that my referral link is already in use.
Is this a limited-time thing? Is the link only shared for a few days or weeks? Or is this a glitch?
Thanks.
aiks. I must have overlooked this comment. Sorry Mark.
I am actually just a blogger, and not in anyway related to BooMP3. This post was written because I think it was a very good app, so I wanted to share with my friends and readers.
So a better way to get solutions to your question would be to e-mail the developers at
support@boomp3.com
Cheers! And thanks for visiting
Great, thank you so much!!
Ok that sounds very good but i dont got the last screen with the customized player i just reached the application today any clue
The customization are just extra option
Autoplay: Straight away play when the page is loaded
Loop: Continuous playing
In the default situation where the boxes are left unchecked, the song will only play when you click the 'play' button, and it will only play for once.
You have a very good blog that the main thing a lot of interesting and useful!
Thanks! =)
Thanks for the share. I learned a lot from this blog. Keep updating about information about this same category.
html5 audio player
I just gathered lot form this blog. I bookmarked this site for continuous visit.
Great post you have been shared. Thanks..
You are the SAVIOR of the audio blogosphere. I have a blogspot blog and have been all over the internet looking for an embedded player to work on my blog, for me mp3s. I got as far as getting stuff uploaded to Dropbox, but couldn't find any code that worked consistently and across browsers. That is, until I came across your post.

When it comes to portable MP3 players, you want one that has a long battery life. The very essence of a portable player is the fact that you can take it anywhere you wish. That won’t work very well if your player’s battery runs down quickly and you are always searching for a place to recharge it.
fiz tudo certo, conforme o tutorial acima, mas deu um erro:
Application error
Change this error message for exceptions thrown outside of an action (like in Dispatcher setups or broken Ruby code) in public/500.html
alguem pode me explicar sobre isso?
Really its Amazing article. This is very nice and you had presented this article in such a manner that everyone can understand it easily!
I created an account at Dropbox, uploaded files there, but I have no folder called 'Public' in my Dropbox
and my attempts to get link leads to the fact that I get, for example link
https://www.dropbox.com/s/u3nst5ilw3tzju1/Pokoj-nasha-priroda.mp3,
paste that link to http://boomp3.com/mp3s/save_url, but get the response 'File not found at that URL'.
What advise to do?
Thank you very much for this detailed article!
New Dropbox account created after 4 Oct 2012 will no longer have the Public folder by default.
If you want to enable it, you can read more here

Youre truly well-informed. I cant believe how much of this I just wasnt aware of. Thank you for bringing more information
You need this code : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/ etc. and file will play :)

Hi! Would you mind if I share your blog with my twitter group? There's a lot of folks that I think would really enjoy your content. Please let me know.
Hi, Sure.
But I have not updated my blog for quite some time. =P
Actually, that's since I gotten busier n busier with my Graduate studies.
But I'm happy that I still get replies and comments once a while, and even happier to share them.
a mi me gusta mucho http://de-regalo.com/
buenisima la pagina!
Is it possible to post the player without allowing the mp3 file to be downloaded? Thanks!
As far as I know, you can't.
However, you can remove the content between <a href> and </a> to remove the link to the site.
By the way, this player tool was not written by me, I just found it useful and promoted it here :)
