Mixcloud
Mixcloud aims to be the
YouTube of Radio. The company’s vision is to be the
definitive platform online for on-demand radio shows - from
music to talk and everything in between. Mixcloud describe
themselves as re-thinking radio, building a platform that
connects radio shows (or what they describe as Cloudcasts)
to listeners much more effectively. The unit of value for
Mixcloud is the show rather than the song or the station.
Mixcloud provides radio content creators with a toolkit to
host, promote and distribute their content across the web,
solving the frustrations associated with file sharing
services or the complications of Podcasts. For listeners,
Mixcloud helps them filter the content easily to find
what’s relevant to them - e.g. what’s popular or
what their friends are listening to. www.mixcloud.com
