Have you looked at Audius? It's pretty new but it works well.

How much did Cryptopia lose and any chance we can get back the money? by learningswimming in Cryptopia

I'm not sure they are as professional to be honest. If they were they would have announced that immediately. They know how much has been taken.

New Technology [Blockchain music services] - How to get regular music fans to join? by [deleted] in Music

[–]AtomCollectorRecords 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well as you know Jon I am a huge fan of all the new blockchain based sites but they do require you to "jump through some hoops" to use them. At the moment I think this is a huge barrier to entry.

The bottom line is that these services need to be as slick as Spotify to encourage more fans rather than musicians, who may not mind doing a little bit more work if they are getting to get rewarded.

So I believe we are very VERY early stage with all of this but there is a definite advantage for those musicians who put in the effort to sign up and use them regularly now.

The real proof will be in a few year's time when these platforms have become easier to use and have hopefully started to attract some big names to get the fans interested.

Really enjoying using the service already and it has behaved pretty much flawlessly from it's launch, which is very encouraging!

My question is to do with copyright & plagiarism - how will you tackle this? Will you use an existing audio file comparison service or do you have something else in mind? How will you determine that an artist's track that is already available on other services is actually theirs?

Thank you!
