Performance improvements, bug fixes, and a whole lotta style.
*** Community Update ***
While we’d really rather not have any limits on listening, we’ve exhausted all short-term options to keep 8tracks free for everyone, as it has been for the past 9 years. Unfortunately, with recent increases in royalty rates, we have no choice but to shift towards subscriptions for listeners in the US (which we’ve priced as affordably as possible). Everyone can still listen for free, but there is a weekly limit which resets each Monday. In the meantime, we’re exploring new ways to allow us to raise the free listening limit while still ensuring a healthy future for our service and the community. Thanks for continuing to support 8tracks!
