What is mixcloud?

Can someone explain me this platform. Is it supporting the device "sharing is caring" or something like that. Is it useful or just another social music producer platform for a short time period?!

www.mixcloud.com

i dunno.. didn't look too deep into it.. i looked at someone's profile once, and i thought they were super into cars or something.. cause their background was this car design. Turns out it was a huge add.

From what I gather its like soundcloud geared towards DJ's. The only page I have ever visited at was "Orca's" Im not really sure what the upload limitations, or the add spam is like, but you might ask "Orca"

I did make a "mixcloud" widget code for anyone using the service on our forum...

@SNM Thanks for the mention man! [yahoo]

As far as upload limits and such go, I yanked this info from the upload page:

Three simple rules
1. It must be either a radio show, Podcast or DJ mix set
2. If music, must contain at least 8 tracks and tracklists/chapters are required
3. File must be mp3 format and under 100MB

As far as i know, you can upload as many mixes as you want. The only problem is that the mix can't be downloaded. I think I'm just gonna drop some cash on a Soundcloud Solo account in the near future just for that one downside.
