From a consumer perspective, SoundCloud lost my interest when I heard it's 128 kbps transcoded mp3 you're getting when streaming songs. No thanks.

- codegladiator 9y ago> 128 kbps transcoded mp3 How much are you looking for ? and how much are you willing to pay for that ?
- blitzprog 9y agoPaying for a music playback? I am paying for music storage, but playback should use source quality at all times. Exceptions are when the track is uploaded in a lossless codec like WAV or FLAC. Then it should be OGG compressed. If you use MP3, at least use 192 kbps or better 320 kbps. Example: https://clyp.it/ https://clyp.it/ allows 320 kbps streaming and it costs 0$.
- abhi3 9y agoSo until you heard its 128 kbps you had no idea? If that's the case then there's no problem with it streaming @128
- blitzprog 9y agoWrong, I simply wasn't using it and heard of the service. You can hear the bad quality by comparing it to a high quality version of the same song on good speakers.
