MixCloud Reviews

Great platform but they force autoplay on the listener which can ruin listening experience

Value For Money

Overall Opinion: The platform works well and the interface is good; generally, this is a well designed and executed site which serves its clientele very well. I would give it 4.5 stars were it not for one flaw, so huge that it makes using Mixcloud so irritating I'd switch away from it at any given chance. It's not something that would bother everyone, but a significant amount for sure: their autoplay function. As soon as your desired mix is finished, Mixcloud force you to listen to another, randomly chosen mix which starts the moments yours ends. You have no way to switch this off; although it would take 5minutes of programming on their part to end huge irritation on the part of their clients, Mixcloud has chosen not to give anyone the freedom to not listen to some random other mix. Where it becomes extremely irritating is when you might be listening to a mix before sleep for example, or for a quiet ceremony, or for a special event. The atmosphere of that is then smashed to bits in a second by (ofte

Pros: ease of use; few restrictions regarding content; easy to use and friendly interface; clean design...

Cons: enforced autoplay function that is impossible to turn off, and customer service will not be honest in their reasons for forcing this upon users
