I admit that the behavior is quite odd at first, but once you get used to it, it is really useful. It is the behavior you would expect in a desktop app — for example, you wouldn’t want iTunes to stop playing when you select a playlist, would you?
- drkmtr999 14y agoHe's not talking about playing a playlist. Usually, users create and manage playlists. Are you familiar?
- ddfreyne 14y agoI was using iTunes playlists as an example that switching to different parts of the UI does not interrupt playback.
- mpyne 14y agoBut was the OP talking about that? It sounded like he was complaining that music continued to play from somewhere after the one song was linked to finished.
- walls 14y agoYes, that would be expected if I selected a playlist. Unfortunately, if I link you directly to a single song, and you click play, SoundCloud decides you came wanting to hear music for as long as the tab is open. All of this ignores the fact there's no way (that I've found, and no, I'm not signing up) to disable 'automatic playlist' behavior. Worse than that, there's no obvious way to just STOP the second track without navigating away. Hell, the only indicator that a second song is even playing, other than my seething rage, is the 50px wide audio visualization tucked away in the top bar.
