I had pro account that I downgraded, thinking of other options.
There are so many things about souncloud that I dislike, so switching would be a good thing.

#1 I never wanted any paid exposure, but to get large enough storage, you need pro account which sort of includes "promotion". I had standard account for 10 years, then upgraded to PRO when I needed more space. When I had 100 or so tracks posted under PRO, it would be naturally to assume that there would be at least a few dozen of comments from whoever they "advertise" to... In 3 years of PRO that I was paying them, I think I got like 5-7 comments that were not from my friends, family and people from this forum. I don't care about this sort of things, but just to show you how "strong" their promotion is.

#2 When I tried to listen to my tunes without logging in, I've had ads running! Why did it happen? I am paying them for hosting and they are still squeezing $. That doesn't go well with me.

#3 Their Bluetooth syncing is horrible. They have some kind of overlay that would often not play in a car unless you re-sync BT and reload soundcloud page. Last thing I want to do when driving.

#4 When I had a question, I filled out well hidden contact form.... 10 month later - still no answer.

I downgraded account a few weeks ago.
I already have a domain, and storage is pretty cheap. To host all my music, WAV's- 24 bit, I would need 4-5gigs of space, which should cost around $30-$50 a year. My plan is to just do a very simple "play list" site with built in player and live happily ever after.
