SoundCloud gets its own iPhone app, new price plans and service enhancements also debut
As Music Ally notes, the SoundCloud app is a good example of a B2B rather than consumer-facing app coming to the iPhone, more evidence of the platform’s growing importance.
The browser-based version of SoundCloud has also been given a major update. The new release is called Taylor, named after Taylor Swift apparently, and offers new features including better statistics, two new player widgets, more privacy options (comments can be disabled, stats hidden etc.), and easier private sharing via a secret URL for use over email and IM.
And those new price plans? The cost of SoundCloud Premium accounts (previously called PRO) is coming down. Yearly Solo, Pro and Pro Plus accounts are now priced at €79, €250, and €500 accordingly. There’s also a new entry-level account called Lite (€29) for users who want to try out some of the premium features, such as better stats and more upload minutes.
