love music and usually try to support artists, but honestly, sound.xyz and similar platforms feel like dead ends—unless you’re a film producer looking for ambient filler or just want to flex bots. creator tokens might be a better approach, but even that feels pretty meh overall. wdyt? my guess: all the crypto stuff quietly moves under the hood—spotify starts settling payouts in usdc, nobody notices, and nothing really changes for the listener or the artist. maybe fine tuning AI in sound, vocal, or lyrics will become most lucrative…

Spotify is a black box. Artists can’t even upload directly, they’re forced to use distributors, which adds friction and middlemen. I like the idea of music files living on a public blockchain. Audio, credits, and rights would all be transparent, and payments could be automatic. Everything changes if plays are verifiable and can’t be faked. Imagine what becomes possible when all the data is public. Charts could actually be legitimate. NFTs don’t have to be speculative. They can act as digital receipts, proof that you bought a song or album which can be verified by anyone. Or they could let fans actually buy ownership in the rights or earnings of a track. Artists could also use NFTs programmatically for early drops, private tracks, community access, etc. Obviously all of this is not happening tmrw, but it’s fun to think about.

You can get a receipt for the hoodie as well and maybe the hoodie is really exclusive so down the line it unlocks a whole other experience. If you just buy a hoodie at the show and get nothing for it but the hoodie, it’s almost as if it never happened. How do we know you didn’t just make the same fake hoodie on your own without the artists permission?

in reality most people will only care about the style/look (re fakes) and those who do prob went via the artist shop which grabs emails anyway i’m not saying it can’t have an advantage but it’s not what people are making it out to be imo that’s just crypto bs leaking over
