Soundcloud is so important for the programmer community that it is unthinkable that it will just disappear. All those background music I enjoy as I code, all those chip-tunes, livecoding musics etc. I hope they open some donation so that I can help.

Well, they do accept money -- they have a €5/month donation plan available here: https://soundcloud.com/pro
$44million is an awful lot of donations.
~6500000 monthly donations of EUR5 each.
I've never personally gotten into SoundCloud but I fill a similar void using Spotify. They have a constantly evolving set of background music playlist under "Browse" > "Genres & Moods" > "Focus".
