    I recently purchased the standalone "Download Video" app. I enjoyed it so much i wanted to try the Audio Download app in the Parallels Toolbox, to try and get some songs on Soundcloud. It had been working fine for a few days but now it has gone dark and seems it won't download anything from SoundCloud, other music sites still work.

    I know you guys ask for specific songs but it won't download anything from SoundCloud, not even songs that successfully downloaded in the past with the app.

    I'm posting because i'm curious if anyone else is having this problem or it's just me.

    P.S the Download Video app also worked to download audio but it seems that is also not working for me (on SoundCloud).

    Hey guys, having trouble with Soundcloud again.
    I'm trying to download this song:
    https://soundcloud.com/important_man464/wind-in-my-sails
    I get the error message "failed to get the audio. This service may not be supported".
    I'm getting this error with other songs as well. Can u guys look into it again for me, thanks!

    I wonder why it stops working from time to time?
    I've tried: signing out, uninstalling. I'm currently on Version 2.0.2 (1213).

    Hello,

    yes, we know about problem with 'soundcloud' and working on fixing it.
    Possibility to download media from web is strictly depends on concrete site. Sometimes web sites change their API and we have to update our downloading mechanism accordingly.

    Thank you for fixing it again!
    Sorry to keep asking, it's just my favorite tool in the Toolbox. It's the reason i subscribed in the first place. It's so much better than using those shady 3rd party sites for downloading audio from Youtube or Soundcloud.

    Can we get a fix for Soundcloud, i know u guys just fixed youtube and i thank you for that!

    It seems like i go a long period of time without downloading anything and then just as i find something it goes down. Just my luck i guess, they change their API just as i find something.

    the song i found is just available on Soundcloud no bandcamp, itunes, amazon, spotify. So i'd really like to download it and have a backup in case it disappears from the internet.

    Hello,

    Could you give us a link to this song on Soundcloud?

    Could other songs be downloaded from Soundcloud, btw?

    It's been a little while since we needed one (which is amazing, thank you!) but can we get another fix for Soundcloud when using the Download Audio Tool?
    Currently can't download songs from there.

    YouTube and other sites are working fine.
