Guest Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I've found so much amazing music on SC. If it shuts down it'll be a huge disaster... to me. +1. It's my main source for unbelievably good music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thawkins Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I've found so much amazing music on SC. If it shuts down it'll be a huge disaster... to me. +1. It's my main source for unbelievably good music. Same here. I like that through my feed or related listens I can get some of the most weirdest and inspiring stuff, and I have absolutely no idea how to reach that otherwise. It's like a random music generator. And because I host my stuff on SC as well, I've paid for the Pro version for the last two years, I don't feel like I am freeloading here either.

sheatheman Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 The great refresh. All the users are still out here but it will shock a lot of them. We honestly need a good wipe. I would be happy if YouTube and Instagram also got shutdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 it's over, dammit I still have faith some large google'esque giant will step in and swallow soundcloud for sake of data hunger / youth-mind control. If not, fuck it, on to the next. Hope bandcamp will pimp up their site-customization game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b born droid Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 What are the alternatives? Especially as someone wanting to have private only streams as I'm sending stuff off to labels etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chesney Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 It's a huge shame if it does disappear but I personally have never rated it. But I am lazy and want easy/automatic promotion not another social platform so... I'm not the ideal user anyway. I'd be happy if people just realised that the internet is not making them happy and basically spent half the time on it. It annoys me to see people walking the streets with their head constantly in a phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheatheman Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Right. We need to realize that the internet isn't leading us to greener pastures. I was super hopeful about the platform from 2014-2015, but the endless scroll hive mind is finally looking like it's going to devour everything.

lyst Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 SC is fine and will go nowhere (as I suspected). Chance the Rapper invested it appears. Someone had to, I mean SC is fucking huge and hot. Someone had to see the potential in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheatheman Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 It's going to collapse. We need this catharsis. I realized I can't just keep waking up in the morning checking SoundCloud. thanks chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
