We need a protocol similar to Farcaster that can serve as home for all the new music being produced worldwide. Imagine all the cool music clients that devs could build. Seems like the only way to truly break free from the monopolistic control exercised by Spotify, YouTube, Apple, and major record labels.

I think there’s already a few good protocols addressing this (Zora, Sona, Sound etc.) Releasing your music onchain means you can stream and purchase on a variety of interfaces with no platform lock in including FutureTape (@fascinated) and Spinamp

Who is hosting the music though? Does it need to be on a blockchain or can it be a system like hubs?

what’s the benefits of hubs do you think?

I think Dan and V know way more than me about this, but im not leaning on either side. Maybe Farcaster will eventually switch from hubs and become it's own chain like Zora + Base. This is the interesting part imo, not whether or not there should be an open protocol for music.

tbh the relatively common ipfs approach allows multiple parties to host the media quite well, if they want to (similar to "run your own hub") cc/ @iamnick.eth

If IPFS is the best solution for storage, then we are making good progress already.
