Someone might have poured all of their creativity to content on that platform and to loosely quote Jason Scott "this might be the largest audience this specific line of genes have/will ever reach". Is that not worth preserving? Even if it just takes a thumb drive worth of space? Even if the content sucks, it still part of our history as a species. Think of some of the old works/diaries/letters that are now thought to hold value. Like I've been lately reading "letter from Seneca". Why are they any more worthy of preservation than something on SoundCloud?

I'm pretty happy to have a 128kbp version of blink 182 albums on my backup, because they mean something to me. I'm just really questioning the need to archive for the sake of archiving.
