It's really a shame that they have been so far from monetization because for those who use it, it's really a great service. Whether it's listenning to mixes, publishing your sounds or seeking out new music to listen too, the Soundcloud user is a faithful one through and through. I know I would pay for my bandwith if it was super Cheap!!
What if it was a paid only service. They would force the users to buy some bitcoins whatever and put them in a SC wallet. And then they can charge ridiculously minute amounts for tha actual bandwith you use. I like this better than the subscription model - A pay to play kinda thing
Bottom line, Soundcloud has the potential to free up artists from publishers and stick it to the industry, it just needs a radical way of charging its users -> it just has to be really really cheap;)
Amen to that, Netflix is like going to your friend's house and finding a couple of shelves of his favorite movies ( a very bad collection for the most part ) - with all the garbage out there, I m not looking to limit myself even further. Its bewildering to see netflix this successful in 2017 when they can just stream any content they want, legally and for free!
