  I have had no problem uploading MP3 to my blog, but now it’s saying, it’s not supported. I haven’t used my 3G allowance as far as I can see? Any ideas?

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

  Hi, if you are trying to upload an audio file of your own you need a WordPress Premium plan or WordPress Business plan.

  See this for info about adding audio files: https://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/

  Thanks David,

  Is this a new thing? I’ve been uploading for 2 years without the premium?

  Not a new thing to my knowledge. To upload your own requires a premium or business plan. However, you can also embed audio files if they are uploaded somewhere else (like soundcloud or something). Doing it that way is free.

  I’ve just never paid for wordpress before and had no problem uploading audio files – I thought you got 3G free? I’ll look into that. thanks for your help.

  I’ve looked at the free wordpress.com and it says I do get 3G of media space for free. I’ve only used 18% of that??
