SoundCloud Go music streaming expands to the UK, Ireland
The free trials are expiring, so will you pay for SoundCloud's music service?
We thought SoundCloud Go could use some polishing when it launched in the US just over a month ago, but the ad-free, offline-enabled option is already expanding to other countries. CTO and co-founder Eric Wahlforss tells Reuters that the subscription option is now available in the UK and Ireland for 9.99 pounds/euros per month, with plans to roll out in "multiple" additional countries this year. There's no word on the number of paying customers yet, as Wahlforss says many users are still in their trial period. Still, he says the company is "well funded" and even though it's not profitable yet, it's looking to go worldwide with the paid option over the next couple of years. If you signed up day one then you've already exhausted your free month so let us know, are you sticking with SoundCloud Go?
