YouTube is free. Seems like SoundCloud was trying to be the audio version of YouTube.

YouTube is the audio version of YouTube, people listen to a TON of music on there. SoundCloud is minuscule in comparison.

YouTube is also making zero money, so if that is what they were trying to be, they've succeeded. Difference is, they don't have Google backing them.
