Eric Wahlforss, SoundCloud chief technology officer and co-founder, has confirmed plans to launch a paid subscription service on the social sound platform later this year according to Tech Times.

This announcement comes after documents were leaked last month showcasing SoundCloud’s plans to join Apple Music, Spotify and other similar music platforms with a two-tier subscription service.

In the past, SoundCloud has been criticized for not paying royalties to artists and labels accordingly.
