Wouldn't it work if there was a cypto stake based (to restrict co2 impact) token priced at a fraction of a penny that users could pay with each time they spun a record licensed by anyone. No more backroom deals to beg a label to let you remix their catalog, you just do it and if it's a hit they make tons of money.
That might not exactly be it but I think a technical payment/usage standard open to all is directionally the right way to let the new artists play/create.
- jrm4 4y agoI like micropayment ideas like this, but I just don't see them happening, not until we fix the below problem. I think the issue isn't "we don't have the technology to pay creators," I think it's always "greedy middlemen suck." They've never been more useless than today, and yet they're still so very powerful here. We just sort of assume their necessity and existence.
