SoundCloudReviews of soundcloud.com

Seien wir mal ehrlich, Soundcloud war ja schon immer leicht unterbelichtet, ich meine einen Remix zu löschen und als Grund dafür die Ähnlichkeit zu den für den Wettbewerb auf Soundcloud liegenden Stems anzugeben, ist ja schon eine mega Leistung und an Schwachsinn kaum zu überbieten, konnte ja auch niemand ahnen dass ein Remix so ähnlich klingt wie das Original! Bei jedem Song den man problemlos auf andere Platformen hochgeladen hat, muss man zittern, ob sie wieder was zu beanstanden haben. Und dann noch dieser ewige Promotion spam! Irgendwann hat mich das ganze so genervt dass ich alle Songs auf privat gestellt und nichts mehr hochgeladen habe. Und jetzt nach all den Jahren in denen man die Leute verärgert hat, lässt man einfach ein paar Leute auf Insta vom "neuen"Konzept fabulieren, das ja so ein "Gamechanger" ist und glaubt anscheinend alles ist vergessen, sozusagen Schwamm drüber. Netter Versuch! Wenn man wo mies behandelt wird, dann muss man da hingehen wo man besser behandelt wird und seine Musik nimmt man schön mit, nur so lernen diese Leute dass sie ohne den Kontent den wir hochladen nicht existieren!

Every time I encounter a Soundcloud embed that I want to listen to, there is *no* volume control, and the default volume blows my ears out. Utterly ridiculous for an app whose only job is to play media to lack a volume slider.

Tried to distribute a song twice, it didn't happen without no explanation, song was just placed into Draft status. Opened the support case, but no answer after three weeks. Awful experience.

It just gets worse... Unable to play any of the 14GB of music saved to my phone when I don't have data/service. My factory at work and where I go to the beach to camp out is all no reception. Even though I am AD free user. Nope. Won't let you Now I can't even play my likes without it jumping into some random 5H1T music 'related' to my songs that is NOT on my likes causing me to pull over or stop my work to find where it went off on a tangent and manually resume MY likes list. It's surely a joke? No, afraid not

What is wrong with this platform though! You guys are crazy. Within 10 min 4 time's a advertisement cmon. And when i am not in the app for a couple of minute's and i come back to it again a advertisement. You guys pushing people to pay in order to get no advertisement? that's disgusting.

--- **⭐️☆☆☆☆ (1-Star - For Policy & Fairness)** **Title: Unlawful Gatekeeping & Anti-Competitive AI Policy** I am flagging a critical, systemic issue at SoundCloud that all independent and forward-thinking creators need to understand. SoundCloud has implemented a policy that unlawfully restricts which creators can monetize their music based not on copyright, but on the specific AI tool they use. Despite owning full commercial rights to my music (created with a paid Suno AI subscription), SoundCloud refuses monetization because Suno is not on their arbitrary "whitelist" of approved partners. **Here’s why this is a major problem for the entire creator community:** 1. **It’s Anti-Competitive Gatekeeping:** This isn't about copyright. My music is fully licensed and legally owned by me. SoundCloud is simply picking winners and losers in the AI tool market, shutting out creators who use legally compliant but non-partnered tools. This is an abuse of their platform power to stifle competition and control the creative supply chain. 2. **The "Human Authorship" Excuse is Illogical:** They requested "documentation from the artist." I *am* the artist. AI is a tool, no different from a ghostwriter, a sample pack, or a producer's beat. SoundCloud doesn't demand documents from those third parties, proving this is a discriminatory policy applied in bad faith to block AI-assisted creators. 3. **Financial Harm to Creators:** This policy actively prevents creators from earning revenue from their own lawfully owned work. It forces us to either abandon our tools or abandon the platform, harming our ability to "pay bills" with our art. **My Recommendation to SoundCloud:** Reverse this anti-competitive policy. Approve music based on the creator's demonstrable legal rights to the content, not on your private business partnerships. Align with creator equity and fair competition principles. **My Warning to Creators:** If you use AI tools like Suno, Udio, or any other innovative platform not on SoundCloud's secret whitelist, you will be locked out of monetization no matter how legally sound your work is. **Do not rely on SoundCloud for AI-assisted revenue.** Use independent distributors like CD Baby or Amuse to get your music to Spotify, Apple Music, and TikTok instead. I am currently challenging this policy through formal channels, including potential complaints to competition authorities (FTC/DOJ). This is a fight for the future of open creation. **Accountability Postscript for SoundCloud:** This review and the corresponding formal challenge are based on the strategic analysis outlined in the "Granderson Mandate," a framework for navigating AI IP and platform gatekeeping. ---

No one works there, it is shocking. Over TWO MONTHS waiting for a reply from the appalling so-called "support team". Absolute joke of a company, avoid at all costs.

Ho perso improvvisamente l'accesso alla mia vecchia playlist. Come posso recuperarla.
