SoundCloud is in trouble

Despite being popular among independent producers and DJs around the world, as a “freemium” service most people use the site without paying.
Almost zero value in paying when you can just remove old tracks to free up space. Also the lack of option to stream at higher than 128kbps was annoying - it's a feature I know some people would actually have paid for.
 
Since their OTT service is often relayed via Vodacom and MTN backbone - they should claim compensation from the infrastructure suppliers. Duh.... Whats with Vodacom and MTN benefiting from data sales from SoundClouds efforts?
 
Never been too interested in them, only visit once in a while when 702 or some other studio uploads something there
 
They need to advertise with preroll ads I think. Won't be surprised if somebody buys them up
