I am developing an iOS app that will play music from soundcloud. I want to give the user the option of an offline mode so he/she can play music even if there is no connection available.
it is technically possible to download the streamed mp3:s locally (I have already implemented it) but will Soundcloud allow me to do it? I have no intention of making these mp3:s accessible outside the app.
The problem of using a downloaded copy instead of the streamed track would be that the play would not count. Is there a way to register a play without actually playing the track?
I have tried to reach them through mail and twitter but I have got no reply yet.
Any thoughts?
