GM Farcaster (podcast)

many such cases :)

Honest question for podcasters out there, I listen to a lot of pods, never paid for one. If I can watch/listen to your podcast for free on YT or Spotify, why would I mint it or own your token to get access? My guess is distribution, but also that the number of people willing to routinely pay for podcast content is small. Am I right? wrong? Change my mind

this is a great question and something i think about often. i think the answer is: people want to give creators money and so we should let them... 

some hypersub podcast stats:
- hyperactive: ~$700
- /cryptosapiens: ~$4.1k
- /gmfarcaster: ~$8k
- /manysuchcases: ~$8.8k

I often pay (and subscribe) for things that I want to exist in the future. It's easier for me to pay for a future podcast episode or article, compared to something that's already there. If it's there and I can somehow get access, well, that's it, I may be tempted to donate something as a sign of gratitude, but that's it. On the other hand, when I enjoy what someone created in the past, and I feel that the only way for them to keep creating it is to make it financially profitable, I'll subscribe.
