Soundcloud Lossless HD

[The Computer Audiophile]

Hi Guys - This is an interesting tidbit from Soundcloud. It's sent out to creators using the platform, but can only mean good things for us as listeners. I wonder if Soundcloud is feeling pressure form Amazon.

Bringing lossless HD storage and downloads to all

You are receiving this email because you have uploaded at least one track to SoundCloud. Part of SoundCloud's commitment to connecting creators with the world's largest community of music fans includes safeguarding your master audio files with higher quality, more flexible storage and recovery features than any other audio platform. To bring our highest quality file-management solution to more creators, we've made some changes to the platform that might affect you:

Starting today, every SoundCloud creator will be able to upload, store and download their original lossless HD files. This feature set was previously only available to Pro Unlimited subscribers. You can learn why uploading lossless HD files is an important way for you to protect your work here.   To make lossless HD file management free to all, starting December 9th, our free upload limit will change from 3 hours of audio, to 3 hours or 15 tracks. This will not impact existing uploads. Learn how this change might affect you at our Help Center.

If you’re interested in uploading without limits, from now until December 16, SoundCloud is offering 30% off of Pro Unlimited which includes unlimited uploads, access to advanced stats and more.
