While the ability to save music to play when not connected to the internet isn’t a new or revolutionary feature, it is one that people really love.

Music No One Else Has

One of the features that has made SoundCloud so popular is that it has millions upon millions of tracks that no other streaming service is built to hold. Everything from remixes to mashups to covers and full DJ sets are available on the site, and while those are precisely the uploads that have gotten SoundCloud in trouble with those looking to be paid for having parts of their intellectual property used, it is also what makes SoundCloud as unique and beloved as it is.
