I paid for a Pro subscription as well as a "Repost by SoundCloud" subscription (The latter is supposed to be included with the former per their advertisement). Even after "double paying", options that were advertised to me are not available. Customer Support is non-responsive. Even worse, once I used their service to "monetize" my tracks, they stopped circulating my tracks. My play count stopped incrementing they day I began "monetizing".

It pains me to say this, but I do feel scammed with no recourse.

User unfriendly
June 14, 2018

It begins when you realize that there is no "Delete file" in a song list. You cannot delete songs - unless it's so well hidden, that it's just a stupid. That's enough for me to call this BS.

I'm going to call my credit card company and put a stop payment on this agreement, I am not very happy right now.
I just paid for a pro plan and it says I am out of minutes, Really? WTF.
$49.00 and I have no soundcloud service.
PS, I gave it about 30 mins before I tried to upload, and it still says I am out of minutes. If they resolve this I will repost. Any place I can post this soundcloud review I will.

Absolutely the most BRILLIANT and ENJOYABLE Podcast is Media Roots with Abby Martin and her brother, Robbie. They are true journalists, who defy the corporate and self censoring of so called "journalists". Abby and Robbie are on the level of Noam Chomsky for their combined ability to deconstruct with alacrity "the manufactured consent" to violence that we are trapped in and they are funny as hell.

As a musician I am grateful to SoundCloud for what they do for us and for me personally. This is great project. I think that all musicians community should support SoundCLoud with their reviews!

Rubbish
April 8, 2020

No feedback from support for queries.
Generally, a pile of dung.
Wouldn't recommend to anyone, and the fake glowing reviews (Like Diana M (2/14/20) on here are not to be believed - it's just bull.

Sound clouds an outstanding platform for music, it's gives everyday normal people the chance to show others in the world theirs fine music and release their set of skills onto the web, overall it's the easiedt app all round to use above any else, my only concern is the stream bar at the top, when you click for e. G Deep House or House & EDM. You except to refresh and see the latest and upcoming or most popular tunes, but as I find I've looked and saw that the music that's displayed on each section has been more or less the exact same for at least 3 weeks? They should be updating that more often because when users are looking around for brand new amazing beats they don't only just look up to who they follow they search these tabs hoping to find that bit more than everyone else, don't get me wrong when they look they find with ease but it needs updated at least st the end of every week, that's just a positive review in which I think would better the app in all. Ps too good of an app I love it!

Don't like the Mobile Version - Cannot get to my "Following" list.

Also, Soundclouds allows for too much junk posted by random djs (as posted by the main dj we were following).

Messy.

Search system
December 29, 2019

Very bad search system. It does not consider many ranges, reducing the number of finds. I have posted quite a large number of songs so far, and the search engine can't find many of the oldest ones.

I miss the original version where it showed when the track was released.

They should listen to customer feedback. It would make their app. Be as great as it was originally.

Im a cheap bytch so i just use the free accounts. They give you somethin like 2 hours of recording time. That part sux but in the end, i made it work for me. I use the 2 hours free accounts as individual albums. So every time i create a new album, i create a new soundcloud n provide linx to it from the others. I dont get wild new listeners unless i promote the shyt out of my musick. This could be due to the nature/content of it though. Its dark, twisted, crazy punk/grunge hybrids. Definitely not for everyone. But all in all, its super easy to use, super easy to navigate, and in the couple years ive been using them, i cant say i have even one legit complaint. Sure it could be better, but i aint found anything better as of yet. Highly recommended all in all. Have a good one. Good luck to you. Cheers. <3 natalie cleotatra kobrapuke of TOXIC DELIRIUM.
