Can't download off the main site (or at all?)

[Human 97]

Hello Earwolves,

 

I noticed this monday that clicking the "download" icon on new podcasts no longer started a download but took me to a soundcloud page that has no option of downloading anything.

 

So the question is:

Can't download podcasts anymore! Is this a bug or working as intended?

 

-me!

According to Engineer Brett, it's due to an unexpected change on SoundCloud and not intentional.

 

Earwolf says they're working on a fix.

Good to know!

 

Thank you for the fast response, can't wait to listen to my fav podcasts again

This still isn't solved, is it?

[DanEngler 5249]

It hasn't. I can only assume that SoundCloud is refusing to budge on restoring the download link functionality.

 

That said, there's a button in the SoundCloud player (to the left of the "Share" button) that will start a download when clicked.

Thanks Dan! I kept looking for that on the Soundcloud page...
