So Soundcloud, is that an ad I see in my stream today? Sure, it looks like a “promoted” song, but it’s an artist I don’t follow and have less than zero interest in yet somehow there it is on the top of my stream. If it looks like a commercial, sounds like a commercial, and reeks like a commercial, then it’s a commercial.

First you gave outside companies the ability to remove songs from our accounts without notice. Now you put commercials into our streams.

This is what I use Soundcloud for… When I’m recording something I upload it so I can listen to it in the car to see if the mix sucks. When things are finished they go to alonetone where they belong. Soundcloud’s service has never been that good. I only used it because it’s free and it lets me not muck up alonetone or iTunes Match. Now even the free account costs too much.

Bite me, Soundcloud.
