Incoming tutorial, before the weekend

A friend decided it would be a great idea to serve MP3s from his site. Then decided having the URL to the file in the source code was poor.

I started off trying to explain the concept of lighttpd's mod_secdownload. But although its great, unlikely to have this on shared hosting.

After trying for a number of hours trying to explain the concept of coding this in Django to someone over MSN (so not really in detail) and getting a response of "your msn tutorials are pretty vague", I decided its worth writing a proper tutorial on.

I'll be writing the tutorial before the weekend as long as things don't get in the way. Its a bit to much to only post a snippet.
