  Started a new blog to showcase my music. Loading and playing mp3s (from my other website) using the [audio http://etc,etc,etc%5D tag works fine as long as I’m viewing the pages in a real browser. But the player doesn’t show up at all in Safari in my cute new iPhone.

  Is there an audio player I can use in my blog that will show up in iPhones?

  I can probably upload files to SoundCloud and then put SoundCloud player links on the blog pages. Trouble is, SoundCloud limits streaming to 128kbps, which frankly sucks. My files are usually at 192 or 256kbps.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The audio player requires Flash so that’s why it wouldn’t be loading on an iPhone.

  It’s a limitation we’re aware of and are keeping in mind for future updates to that shortcode. Unfortunately not something that can be changed right now, though.
