Music
Bedeutet ja eigentlich Seifenkiste. Aber auch in diesem Satz? Es geht hier um ein Musikportal, wo man sich Songs anhören kann und runterladen kann. Die Mitglieder haben eine persönliche Profilseite.
Members often use their Journals to write about music – but Journals can be used to express your thoughts on almost any topic. Consider this your personal soapbox, to tell the world what’s on your mind.

info
LONDON -- Hyde Park Corner is one of the most famous and hallowed spots in this great city. There, each Sunday morning, orators, preachers, revolutionaries and crazies would mount soapboxes and say whatever they pleased.
Nothing was taboo. This was Britain's temple of free speech.
Also:
Located on the corner of Park Lane and Cumberland Gate, opposite Marble Arch tube, Speakers' Corner is the spiritual home of the British democratic tradition of soapbox oratory.
Every Sunday since the right of free assembly was recognised in 1872, people from all walks of life have gathered to listen to speeches about anything and everything... and to heckle.
The coherence of the speakers varies greatly as do the topics of discussion, but as a whole it makes for great street theatre. So, if you have a burning desire to share your opinions with the world, take something to stand on and start pontificating.
Although Sunday morning is the best time to visit, speakers can now be found on the corner throughout the week.
What are you waiting for?

Standpunkte
"personal soapboxes" finden sich in vielen blogs u.ä.; dabei geht es - wie im zu übersetzenden Text - um einen Ort, an dem man seine Meinungen zu allem und jedem kundtun kann.
Bei Wikipedia ("What Wikipedia is not") bedeutet es soviel wie Werbe-/Proagandaplattform. Das scheint mir hier aber nicht zu passen.

Sprachrohr, natürlich
In diesem Kontext könnte (etwas moderner) auch 'PA-System' benutzt werden

well, that's an opinion (remember Hyde Park and the Speakers' Corner, where people stood on a soap box?)
