Music

True or False?

Having constant, unlimited access to music through streaming platforms like Spotify can make it feel less special or meaningful.

If true, do you think owning music on Web3 platforms can strengthen your personal connection to the artist and their songs?

agreed. even if I still actually listen through Spotify, truly owning a song and/or having a direct patronage connection to the artist is more meaningful

I think web3 platforms need to perfect this messaging when marketing the differences. But I also think that web3 hasn’t done a great job at ownership. Everyone is too busy scheming on new methods of speculation

I will say I don't think that many people care about ownership and patronage (versus speculation or entertainment). comparatively niche market

counterpoint: Patreon exists and it's nowhere near the scale of the ad-based platforms. people prefer free content, paid can never compete on the same level

I think if we go deep on the topic we’d find that people care but they’ve been conditioned not to by platforms like Spotify and YouTube. Web3 isn’t helping either because it fronts like it’s all about ownership and provenance while making it mostly about speculation
