I truly hope it’s not a “pay per listen” system like the podcast apps.

Bitcoin should help drive us back to the ownership economy, not further entrench us as renters.

Bandcamp had so much potential but they sat on their hands for a decade, making zero changes or improvements to anything. Those scumbags were trying to get bought out for ages. They coulda had it all.

This should decision should be left up to the creator. If someone makes a song and wishes to be paid every time someone listens to now they can. Or if you want to release work people pay once and then “own it” then that’s fine as well but content creators should have a choice

Once the UI and UX get better, and people realize they can get paid whenever and however they like, the clown world explode. Artists can build monetary incentive structures around their fanbase. Like if your one of "Nicki's Bees" then you get sats by promoting her content. She'll throw random rewards and create a gamified experience for her fans.

After days of deliberation we came to final decision
We should support Lil Durk and Up incoming album 7220
So day and night we messaged, participated in livestreams
Defended positions, Provided support and Encouragement
We were then selected to help manage the community
Giving us the ability to live the dignified life of community managers
Dirks album came out and he gave 1 million sats to his top 3 supporters
We were number 2
People said we were crazy, but look whos crazy now
We're Millionare's

The fans will get hit by lightning.

Call me crazy but I think this is what block (square) is trying to do. The current model kept artists broke or enslaved to the rent seekers forever (record companies). Popular example is TLC they were major in the 90s and their record company robbed them. The whole buy cd and you “own” the music isn’t true. You can’t sample music off that CD and not pay the record labels anything.

But yea this would be crazy and a direct way artists to give back to their diehard fans
