So here’s how it works: SoundCloud is essentially a free streaming service. But a lot of artists also allow free downloads as well. You have to search around, but you’ll see a free music download option if the artist has enabled it. Then, it’s yours! Keep in mind that many larger artists only stream. In fact, most major label artists are prohibited from offering free downloads, based on their contracts.
That has spawned a group of SoundCloud downloaders to work around that limitation, though SoundCloud doesn’t (technically) authorize those apps. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a dedicated free music download section. And, there’s little chance that will happen in the future, so happy exploring!
