    Music Playback System Is Unreliable — Constant SoundCloud Failures

    We need to address an ongoing problem that’s affecting clubs, events, and general space hosting: the music playback system keeps breaking due to SoundCloud dependency.

    Right now, SoundCloud is outdated and unstable for this platform — half the time the service is down, links time out, or the track simply won’t play. When you’re running a venue or hosting an event, it kills the flow, kills engagement, and makes it nearly impossible to keep the vibe consistent.

    This isn’t a small frustration anymore — multiple venues are building full events around music and the system is holding us back. We need either:

    A) a more reliable music integration, or
    B) alternative playback options that don’t rely on SoundCloud’s availability.

    If anyone else is dealing with the same issue, leave your experience below so we can push this to be prioritized. Music is a core feature for a ton of users here — it should work.

      i agree, soundcloud isnt great but from what i know is that the reason its used is because most platforms e.g. spotify & apple music require subscriptions. My only suggestion would be to build either soundcloud or another platform into the Smallverse Application itself rather than an ingame widget, a simple burger menu in the top left with a music link function would suffice as long as it works across all players in the space
