On the flip side they would create a lot of bad faith by doing that so
this is just a protection against litigious elements who would seek to
bring them down by tying them up in unending court cases. Companies like
Microsoft, Avid, Oracle, etc...
Soundcloud provide an excellent service otherwise.
I support them and have even paid them money to host my tracks. A whole
$5, wow!
It would be handy if everyone who used my services gave me $5.

Most likely, you're agreeing to give them those rights regardless of how
you might be licensing your works for other people's consumption through
their servers. It's a moot point, though, since their terms also
include
these:
"USER irrevocably waives the right to assert any claim against
SOUNDCLOUD
or any of its respective parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors,
assigns, employees, agents, directors, officers or shareholders in
relation
to the Content generated, uploaded, transmitted or otherwise used on
SOUNDCLOUDâs Website or Services, including, but not limited to,
copyright,
trademark, unfair competition, invasion of privacy, breach of contract
or
breach of confidentiality."
TLDR: Even if we violate this agreement, you agree you can't sue us for
it.
Or anyone we do business with, pretty much. One of the issues I see with sites like
Soundcloud is that in the fine
print they basically claim the right to use your work how they like,
for as long as they like.
SoundCloud allows you to put a license on your tracks.
CC licenses are
legally valid so if SoundCloud would use any CC BY NC SA licensed track
for commercial purposes they have a problem.
So, no, I don't see myself using Soundcloud for my music.
