Soundcloud seems like the only service that allows other sites to use the music data. By that I mean the ability to use actually use the track&#x27;s sample data for creative coding audio reactive projects like <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;vertexshaderart.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;vertexshaderart.com</a><p>On the negative side, as others have pointed out, they haven&#x27;t done much to make the site better for various definitions of better. I&#x27;ve found searching fairly lacking. I&#x27;d love something that tried to find tracks I&#x27;d like (is that something deep learning could figure out?).<p>Also when searching for music I type in some keyword and then start listening to tracks. The browser gets more and more bogged down the more tracks I listen to. Something about their design is adding more parallel work with each new track clicked on. Maybe that&#x27;s a browser bug? Eventually I have to refresh the page and then scroll back down to the last track I played and continue the process of listening to tracks.
