Even 80% of the market prefers to only goggle over Justin Bieber,
there are significant markets that want more diversity. For example, Shawn Grunberger who created BandCamp was a guy that I encouraged back in 1995 to pursue his dream (when I was the programmer and he was working the customer support dept).
We are headed into a fracturing of society where humans break away from a monolith and assert their differences.
Some years I was involved with developping a c++ streaming module based on ogg/ogm and independant distribution platform, was still involved with this in the beginning of last year with blockchain / html5 based things. But we saw very quickly it's very locked, artist and author have literally gun on their temple from their producer, and even signifiant part of them has been heavily brainwashed on hating p2p in the 2000

Can hope on independant artist or content creator, but they will rarely bring high commercial interest, and still large part will prefer to stick to traditional edition/promotion companies, even with the bad conditions, but they dont think any other way to make good revenu with content creation than being signed with universal or Sony.
We have somehow à plan with decentralized music streaming, and made quick prototype with multi chain, and home made ogg streamer in the node + html5 player and some thinking on this kind of system. But not sure it's 100% viable commercially and if enough artist who are not already chain signed to a big one would jump the step.
And explaining block chain to artists good luck

already 2+2 they have an head ache
