That's a fucking genius idea! One stop shop to music production by connecting creatives with different skills on top of a decentralised publishing platform!

This would deal a huge blow to labels if it catches on. The only other piece is promotion, but if the listener platforms catch on one can simply pay for that with sats.

Combined that would literally make labels 100% obsolete. It's about time!

The distribution aspect is being addressed at protocol level. There are a few bits and pieces in the pipeline that would make it work.

Notes holding encrypted files (then need to find a way to have a zap send the decryption key, zap wall)

Zap tags… so that a LN address can follow content if it is being redistributed.

Zap splits at Nostr protocol level, to split the income amongst the makers

Decentralized heavier duty servers (for bigger media, music and video)

Once the media distribution aspect is standardized it will be up to the clients to imagine how the audience can interact with and pay for it (zap per play, subscriptions, ad sponsored….)

So much potential in all these new NIPs!

For storage, we really need to build a decentralised solution there too. Perhaps some type of encrypted database sharding where you get paid in sats relative to how much disk space you can offer, how fast your connection is, and how reliable you are.

This would incentivise people to take part and the data sharding approach means no single node can see the contents of files (they'd be spread across multiple nodes).

For the storage there seems to be multiple solutions being discussed. I was told some of them are rather beautiful. Might try to hunt some info later today.

A few interesting ideas have been developed for permaweb, would be nice if one didn’t need a custom token.
