Thinking about the silos of sound on the web. I’m trying to figure out what an appropriate metaphor is for the sharing of audio. Someone said to me today they thought audio was already figured out on the web; I said that was akin to saying video was figured out on the web with the advent of Netflix.

As far as I can see, the emergence of services like SoundCloud means content creators can spend less time thinking about how people can consume their content and more time just making it. I’ve written plenty before about the winning platforms being those that lower the barriers to expression; SoundCloud is poised to do just that.

I don’t have a metaphor for it though…
