It's not exactly clear what this is. Is it a music player, or a new streaming service? They make a big deal about their history, but then also talk about fair revenue for creators.
I have a vague fear that it's going to try and do something like Brave's "BAT" but for music that you have locally -- which I guess could work if you distribute your music for free (as I do for much of mine), but doesn't make sense if you purchase your music. I certainly can't see myself wanting to pay for the same music twice -- once for the physical or digital copy, and then again for "Winamp Attention Tokens".
Much more likely though that it's just another music streaming service.
- varispeed 5y ago> also talk about fair revenue for creators. If it was fair then they wouldn't have to label it as such... or if this is a classic PR language then you must ask fair to whom?
- unethical_ban 5y ago>If it was fair then they wouldn't have to label it as such. This doesn't compute. It is recognized that compensation to artists is a sticking point with several streaming platforms. If a new one comes along and says "we're different", what is wrong with advertising a competitive advantage?
