Registered users are permitted a limited number of downloads of non-sponsored mixtapes per day. Premium paid users have an unlimited number of downloads of any mixtape. Mixtapes may be streamed by any user. Premium content may also be purchased.[citation needed]
Users register as an artist or fan - the key difference being that artists upload their work to the site while fans may only listen to these works.[citation needed]
