There's a lot of conflicting information out right now about whether or not SoundCloud's on life support. On one side it's being reported that the company only has enough money left to survive for about seven more weeks, despite just laying off 173 employees (a.k.a. about 40 percent of their staff). On the other side, the company released an admittedly brief statement on Friday afternoon to say that "your music isn't going anywhere." Believe the report(s) or believe these four tweets telling those who read them to "spread the word":

*airhorn* Spread the word: your music isn’t going anywhere. Neither are we.
