It seems like SoundCloud is more like the Vimeo for audio. They provide free and paid versions just like Vimeo. I don't think I've seen the YouTube for audio yet.

Ask HN: Music startup vs. Audio startup?

I've seen Dalton Caldwell's talk on why starting a music startup is a bad idea, but I'm wondering, is starting an audio startup bad as well? I think not, but I want to know your thoughts.YouTube, for instance, let's people upload videos and they remove things that are copyright violations.Why not have the same for audio but remove the stuff that gets reported for DMCA violations?

Ah the Leaderboard ;) The idea is really simple. People who are frequent watchers get rewarded with points and they show up at the top of the Leaderboard.

Fixed now.

And compare it with githtml on the /blob/ version of the same page: https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/blob/master/examples/canv...

Sorry about that.

The problem is actually from github. Just create a new bookmark and add the js code as the URL.

FLOW_TO_IRC = { "organization/flow" => "#secret password" }
