Unlimited offline storage
Now we talking
None of that beatport/beatsource 50 tracks nonsense
Competition is great 
Offline storage is also offered by the cheaper Soundcloud Go and Go+ accounts. Only thing is the DJ software that has those services doesnāt allow the offline part.
Also worth noting is that all of these Soundcloud services are for personal use only, so not much use to gigging DJs.
As you can only use the services at home, thereās not much point in having offline storage IMO, so why pay more for it?
Too bad SoundCloud contains lots of non-usable ātracksā.

Every commercial music medium is for āpersonal useā even physical music formats eg CD, Vinyl, Cassettes, VHS, Betamax, Catridges etc
So can we not bring this up again and again.
There is a difference (as Iām sure Iāve mentioned here before).
CD, vinyl etc. states that unauthorized public performance (etc) is not permitted. So if you have the authorization, you have permission. Thatās why the word is included.
Soundcloud (etc) donāt include the unauthorized statement. They just say no. Period.
Big difference.
Just to confirm this. From the SoundCloud DJ FAQ page https://help.soundcloud.com/hc/en-us/articles/360050964874-SoundCloud-DJ-FAQs

You are half right and half wrong. All what you are saying is relative. The cds I bought also came with the licence. In Canada

Is a wedding gig a private use?
If you look close at the labels youāll see itās Canadian print and manufactured. With different parameters than that of the same cds made in the the USA.
A wedding gig is not āpersonal useā.
Actually looking at other cds from other places the only restriction is for unauthorized duplication.
In my country if you have the original CD/vinyl you can dj without a licence however this does not apply to broadcasting. If you have any kind of storage media with copies of music you have to licence each piece of storage media regardless if you got the songs legit or not. 
The other crap has to do with permits
Soundcloud is no competition for Beatport or Traxsource - its not the same thing, right?
What if personal use just plainly means it is you personally using it?
SoundCloud is more of a place for anyone to upload their music, rather than somewhere that has a catalogue of well know artists from major labels.
So you tend to get relatively unknown artists who are looking for success, or DJs making their own mixes or remixes and using it to promote themselves.

Yes of course, thatās what it means. Is it likely that you will be the only person at the wedding?
How bout if Iām the only one in the middle of the woods would anybody hear the beat when it drops? 
. Would it make a sound?
That depends how loud your PA system is.
SoundCloud seems popular and easy to access. Iāve been looking hard at Mixcloud.
Mixcloud isnāt for single tracks - its for mixes, as far as I can tell (hence the name).
Anyone use Bandcamp? Thats the next big thing, i think.
There may not be any police around when you break the speed limit on the motorway, but that doesnāt give you permission to do it!
Youāre right.
SoundCloud is the best place to go if you made a remix or a song or to find stuff from others who done the same.
I donāt know yet if live steaming your music is still a gimmick. Maybe for those who absolutely need every track at their disposal itās a good thing.
I only collect 150-350 tracks a year.
