Reasons why holding this Soribada Music Card is so important
(1) Affordable+Good Buy = Unlimited Listening+Download 40 songs for 1 month
(2) Music charts take into heavy consideration of Soribada, too. especially when globalization is on the rise.
(3) You don't have to be a Korean member of Soribada so that your participation will count in -- NO
(4) If you're a foreigner, even if you want to join as a member, they no longer execute that service for now
--ie; meaning: you can only purchase this Music Card so that your participation of supporting the artist counts in (Stream/Download).
(5) MOST IMPORTANT:
By entering www.soribada.com on your address bar and then immediately heading to go search for your desired song where you click on it and start listening = do you think that's streaming?
Yeah it is, BUT it's NOT counted into charts...
So = In vain
That is why, pls understand that the purchasing of CARD is very pivotal.
