Ctrl+F Soundcloud.. crickets I once made a chrome extension to add global keyboard shortcuts to Soundcloud and now that is literally all I listen to all day (I know, artists aren't getting a penny from me and that is bad, especially for small indies, I would buy much more music off bandcamp if the ux wasn't so atrocious). My point is, surely I'm not the only one here using SC exclusively? Just curious.

Just yesterday, I tried to find an album that Scott Melker had uploaded to SoundCloud. It's gone, and he posted this announcement https://soundcloud.com/scottmelker/please-listen-a-message-on-my-soundcloud-takedowns-and-account https://soundcloud.com/scottmelker/please-listen-a-message-o... So, SoundCloud can't present me with the discography of Black Sabbath, and a smaller artist I enjoy can't even keep his music on the service.
