So.. brainstorming on music integrations, what would make for an amazing experience for both users and artists? 

Throw out your ideas here!

Just off the top of my head, brainstorming out loud here:

Two buttons, one to like, one to subscribe (ongoing support is better than one time payments).

For individual songs, we’ll want a clear zap button that’s hard to miss. A secondary follow button might be nice too, or a like button might work well if we can use that to discover other music.

Upon song ending, it would be amazing to recommend other music either from that artist, or from others that the artist recommends. This could be autoplay or manual. This is a great marketing loop for everyone participating and a good way to discover something the artist you’re supporting likes.

Mini playlist renders either within the timeline or within other parts of UI would be cool. Of course, this is probably easier said than done, but imagine being able to listen to entire playlists instead of a single song. People could then curate playlists and share. This could be done within another specialized client that is specifically designed to do this well. Bonus points if you can just share this elsewhere and it renders nicely even outside of nostr.

For clients with multiple column UIs, it would be amazing if you could add a player as a widget of sorts and that pulls your playlist, or others’s playlists.

Speaking of playlists, how do we give them their own pages? Make playlists linkable from anywhere.

What other wild behavior can nostr enable? What is possible now that wasn’t then? 

Is this difficult to make? I don’t know, you tell me. I’m just throwing out ideas to see if any resonate with the shadowy supercoders 😅

👉 Third button = Add to Playlist button

👉 Conversations (preferably chat-like UI) around songs and playlists (in the music player UI that show up as comments in social feed apps)

👉 Profile page with Live Events, Merch and more of things where the actual money is made.

Yeah would be amazing to tie merch into all of this! We need seamless and effortless marketplaces
