Im a music producer.

You should be able to tell me this idea in a few sentences.
If I cant figure it out, and I'm in the industry how the hell is someone from the public going to? Its not that theres anything bad. I just dont see where the focus for mass adoption is. That is what you absolutely need, and there is no doubt the music industry has way bigger potential than the porn industry for using crypto coins. But its not going to happen if artists, labels, and the public have to jump through hoops to do it. Right now its incredibly easy to buy music, or listen to it, or even take it. Anything remotely more difficult than the current methods simply wont happen.


I also feel you have it the wrong way around. THE PROBLEM with the music industry now is there is no filter down money effect. It now stays at the top. Masses of small, niche, and indie artists wont see a royalty check worth a damn ever. They are where your focus should be first. Getting them on board (which wouldnt be that hard) would then get their fanbases involved etc.

The point is the vast majority of music artists make next to nothing these days contrary to what the general public believes. So any avenue or possible means of income like this would be wholly embraced.

Then again to be honest it doesn't need what seems to me a centralized system which I gotta say is very complicated to understand for newcomers to crypto like me.

this guy seems to talk sense
