I hear you, but I'm quite confident the site is going to stay good for a while. Then, given that storage and bandwidth might become cheaper, we would see some startups emerge and target those who would have been "abandoned" by this hypothetical evil, VC-funded Soundcloud. Musicians would then leave Soundcloud like they left Myspace, so let's not worry too much and enjoy Soundcloud for the moment, because it's still a good product.
Let's not forget that we're talking about D series, and if they could keep this focus so far, I'd say we can at least try to have a bit of faith in them.
