Hot take in response to @Silvie rant.

The Nostr and Podcasting2.0 community at large are not music fans, or otherwise, they don't really believe in decentralization and sovereignty. (And there are quite remarkable exceptions to this statement.)

Anyone who pays for a music platform subscription and doesn't also invest as much in the v4v music space is culpable. The argument that the artist aren't here is largely because the "ROI" simply doesn't add up for artists with decent followings.

Discuss 😁

I can't really comment on the community at large. I've been around long enough to know a fair number of people here, but not enough to speak for everyone. But the ROI argument makes a lot of sense to me. It's hard to onboard artists with decent followings if the economics don't make sense for them....

I agree the space is lacking the most in β€œfan” input with zaps and boosts. Two ways to fix: educate existing music fans on these protocols and how to get bitcoin to zap, or turn existing bitcoiners into fans. I think the latter is probably easier than the former.

Rant? That was not a rant. It's an observational opinion, and a fair and well reasoned one at that..... https://npub1k0q20cdcvc64h6pka8ddum6m6y2edm6mw6v73cfctjwvhq3rrejss2kmaj.blossom.band/f1ea3106cb83ea805e9499a9a7c7c02a341be5652c09a4f15cfc9e6c3f120bc9.jpg
