really think the whole design is a mess. And contrary to the single song
angle that many use the site for, if you play a song, it automatically
starts playing the next song in that user's account, which I personally
find extremely annoying.

The last time I tried using it, there were two technical barriers (that
might not be there any more, I haven't checked), namely a ridiculous low
limit on file size, and a need to convert any file to 44.1/16 before
uploading. Showstopper, and I have not bothered with the site since.

I don't see any reason why that would stop you, if you have so much against
it you should have it blocked (as I have). It is not necessary to use the
site.
