This works as it should (testing with Joomla 1.7). Only reason I don't give it a better rating is because you can't change the module class suffix.
It also has hidden backlinks, which sucks. We all understand that it's fair to get a link for the work you provide for free, but not when it's hidden and several ones, which is really bad in terms of SEO (Google hates hidden backlinks).
However the hidden backlinks are easily removed with a simple edit, so my final rating is "Good".

This doesn't seem to work properly with Joomla 1.6 leaving it to be quite bugish.
Also im finding links in my sourcecode to random websites which after googling i found was being inserted there by this extension.
It seems very intentional to me so i will be avoiding this plugin for now.

I checked works on Joomla 1.6.All the link to my sites if you don`t like it you can delete them or if you pay me I can delete for you.However if I support you it would nice to have some support from you at least with links.
It seems like some very nice, simple plugins. Installs and works as intended. Features are ok.
Unfortunately it seems to have some hidden code,intentionally or not, that has inserted some links on my website. I wanted to contact the author, but there doesnt seem to be any way to this on his website.

I haven`t receive any letters from you.It`s not hidden code It`s opensource. If don`t like the module don`t use it or you can rewrite it if you know how.
Excellent stuff, works perfectly, and set up in a heartbeat! The only one small thing that stopped me rating 5 stars was there's no 'module class suffix' field in the module edit page.
I'm sure this is easily remedied though, and will not even matter to 99% of users.
Highly recommended as the best and easiest option for displaying up-to-date SoundCloud info on your Joomla site, whether the suffix field is there or not. Bravo.

Great module, easy to setup & worked straight away. The only problem I have had was SoundCloud was down the other day & it made my site very slow to load, most people browding would have thought my site was down. If after say 10 seconds it can't connect to Soundcloud would be nice if it could display a message rather than keep trying.
