The users will have gone through a registration and login to get to
the downloads.
The files will be served from MySQL and output to HTML of Flash.
This is for a small project of limited edition audio or pictures or
scripts, etc.
Hens, "I'd like" to limit each user in the allotted 150 to be able to
download (whatever it is) only once.
But up to 150 users can get in on it kind of thing.

Hello,
How can I go about restricting the number of downloads of a file
on my server?
For Eg: if I want a music track to only be able to be downloaded
by 150 people and thats it.. ever,
how can I go about doing this?
Much obliged,
Karl DeSaulniers
Karl:
Just have the download pass through a script that counts, such as
found here:
http://sperling.com/freeware.php
When someone click the link, it activates a script that provides
the download and saves a count. It would be trivial to stop the
download at a specific number.
Cheers,

Hey thanks Tedd.
Quick question. Were you referring me to this link to download one
of their demos or just to show that they count their downloads?
EG: Binary-Tree v1.1 Downloads: 2806
