ok maybe i'm dumb but isn't a $1 open edition kinda the same as paying 99 cents for a song on apple music circa 2009??? there are reasons we as listeners evolved past that model, incl better flexibility, variety, costs, and discovery — right? yes, crypto allows for artists to reward early fans BUT fred again and taylor swift and maggie rogers did this without crypto individual song mints could make sense for consumers who want exclusive content (ownership), supporting indie artists (patronage), permanent access, but those are the exception to the rule: the vast majority of consumers prefer the streaming model imo better model would be /hypersubs to access a curated library of $1 songs where artists get distribution through trusted musical curators instead of a centralized platform and some sort of revenue share if a listener really loves the song, they can decide to mint that individual song for $1 idk just spitballing

Would I pay for a hypersub that curates the best onchain music exceptionally well? Absolutely. But based on what I've seen, there simply isn't enough great music onchain right now to justify it. I believe the focus should be on getting our favorite artists (new or established) to distribute their music onchain, alongside other streaming platforms. Considering all the money circulating in crypto, I'm surprised that many of the world's top artists have yet to see the value in bringing their music onchain

Why does it have to be exclusively onchain music? Why couldn’t it be just token gated playlists? Best djs drop songs that aren’t even out on the market so there’s also a possibility to token gate ids

All curation could be token-gated, so I agree with you. As long as someone finds the curation valuable enough to pay for it, it could work

Im sure some professional djs would pay big money to know some sessions that are full of un-shazamable songs
