The Case for SoundCloud

I use SoundCloud when I don't have any other options, but I try not to make a habit of using websites that depend on Adobe Flash.

SoundCloud has offered an HTML5 player for years.

How dose one enable it? I only get the "something went wrong" page when visiting the site and all the help docs only reference an HTML5 embedded player.

All I had to do to "enable" it was not have Flash installed. Their site has continued to work properly with no issue.

There's still a need for Flash for things like live streaming where there's no official support in HTML5, only extremely hacky solutions.

Has to do with DRM right? Same thing with spotify on the web.
