Part 1: Brief Introduction to 8tracks<\/strong><\/h2>\n
According to their website, 8tracks (pronounced as infinite tracks) is an internet radio and social network revolving around the concept of streaming user-curated playlists consisting of at least 8 tracks. It was established in August 2008, as one of the longest-established music streaming services. It however\u00a0shutdown at the end of 2019 (briefly), with the owners admitting that \u201cwe cannot generate enough revenue, at our current scale, to cover royalties that continue to increase\u201d. <\/p>\n
In April 2026, 8tracks bounced back much to the surprise of everyone. That followed the acquisition of some of 8tracks\u2019 assets by a new company called BackBeat Inc, which has vowed to continue operating the brand, and adding newer features as time goes by. BackBeat Inc\u2019s plan is for ad-supported and subscription tiers, including direct licensing deals with labels. Some of the tracks on the existing 8tracks playlists are being automatically skipped for now, albeit the vast majority of current 8tracks playlists are available to stream. You can use the service for free, but the 8tracks plus package gets you an ad-free experience, higher quality and unlimited skips. The plus package costs $4.99, and you can get a 14-day free trial.<\/p>\n
