[Pdr] Music on PDR

[Sam Leon]

Mixcloud and Soundcloud would be nice and I could pretty easily turn
playlists into one extended audio file for Mixcloud.

I could talk to Nikhil about the possibility of getting the playlists etc
featured.

An advantage of Soundcloud would be that people could download the
individual files, but there's no need to stick to one. We could easily
maintain a presence on both SC and Mixcloud.

What do people think about the blog I sent round?
