It's time for me to pay SoundCloud. I was wondering if there's something better now?
Thanks,
Billy

![[Linked Image - Only viewable when logged in]](https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=download&Number=31006&filename=Screenshot 2025-06-28 182335.jpg) Why do you feel you have to pay for this free service? The only thing I can think is you are running out of space. That would be the only reason I would consider to..

Storage space?
Does that imply you don’t want or care if folks listen to your tunes?

Why do you feel you have to pay for this free service? The only thing I can think is you are running out of space. That would be the only reason I would consider to.. There are other considerations. It all depends. Soundcloud plans and pricingNow that the ELUA makes you agree that your content can be use to train AI, I will be cancelling my Artist Pro subscription and removing my content except for my Christmas pieces that are in the PD. Those can stay with the free Basic.

Bud Hi Bud LOL...No... No, but I find it interesting to listen to things I did 13 years ago and posted to Soundcloud. Secondly, I don't want to listen to all their ads. That is worth the $100 a year. I would like to know if there is something better for the future. The YouTube ads irritate me, too. So does the deluge of useless email, along with the incessant updating of my iPhone and Windows 11. As this has turned into a minor rant, I might as well complain about the stupid things the government does, local, county, and national...lol Cheers, Billy

re soundcloud.
ive tried various of these sites over the years...and found for an artist who would like wider exposure of their songs it can be a challenge to achieve that.
what ive concluded from my marketing background in a previous life is...
'the mass of normal new music consumers' out there dont seem to be going to these sites often.
in my travels talking to these folks and asking why...the response often
is not enough time/too busy with other things etc etc or just normal human ennui.
thus ive concluded that IF one really wants to attract a wider audience one must do lots of marketing to what i call 'gatekeepers'...
eg radio and tv stations//the media as examples.
its not easy and tons of work.
just my opinion.

As always, a lovely voice, Janice. I guess we all are compelled to use the damn phones. It is the most intrusive device we have ever invented.
For me, Soundcloud is just a place to store music. Soundcloud provides a place to exchange ideas with other musicians worldwide.
The chance of someone discovering something on SoundCloud and purchasing it is remote at best.
An independent artist trying to compete with the commercial music industry is about as easy as winning the lottery.
