sounds from the clouds

I recently discovered a music sharing site that seems to have great potential. soundcloud is a site where one can upload their own music (songs, sets, anything really) and post it to share with friends, everyone, or even private invites. They also include a flash widget player you can embed in your own website, or sites like Facebook or MySpace. Not only do I see this as a great way for DJs and other artists to distribute their music, but the general public to share music with their friends (new way to pirate?) with their 'dropbox' feature. The dropbox is a place where anyone can upload a music to you! Like Twitter, you can 'follow' others uploads and make comments about their music.

It will be interesting to watch where this site goes. In the mean time, check out my music section to see their widget player!
