One of the issues I see with sites like Soundcloud is that in the fine

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.
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.
Thanks a lot for that explanations.
Very helpfull :-)
So, no, I don't see myself using Soundcloud for my music.
