SoundCloud has big plans in store for 2016. The company is reportedly interested in creating an audio-streaming service. With SoundCloud’s latest update, it appears that the they’re already getting users ready.
SoundCloud’s new stations feature along with its newly added continuous play tool let users listen to new songs in a mix. SoundCloud will learn from the music you listen to and put together a suggested station. Users can enter this mode by clicking on the menu icon in the top right corner of the app and selecting the ‘start track station’ option. Just like any other song, you’ll be able to see the name of the song being played, the artist, as well as some other information about the track. You can also view your history by visiting your profile. We have seen other companies take similar approaches with their own streaming services.
SoundCloud is hoping that this new feature lets users discover new music that they’ve never heard before. This may be SoundCloud prepping for an audio-streaming service, which is expected to come out in 2016. The update containing this new feature is available today in both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. What do you think of this new feature? Is it a hint of what’s to come? Let us know in the comments.
