I filled up my
SoundCloud account, so I started a
new one.
I considered getting a pro account so I could upload more, but it's $100/year, and I mostly have it so I can participate in group challenges. No discovery happens for me on SoundCloud, either as a listener or artist, and they have not dealt with blatant spam accounts that have been a problem for years. Every single time you upload a track, some spam account likes it and they have some banner about paying for shares and other promotion.
I don't know what they're spending their dev time on, but knowing VC-funded business, it's probably something devastatingly stupid.
