This is what happens when a startup fails. The problem with SoundCloud is that Spotify ate their lunch. I'm not sure this is solvable -- it's like being second place to eBay. Trainor might not be able to do much unless he pivots the company Jobs-style, which isn't an easy feat.
I have to wonder why the VC sunk more money into SoundCloud. Do they see an opportunity we don't? Or is it politicking? Hard to tell.
