Most people just want to pay a one-time fee and not have to think about it anymore. Something like what you describe probably wouldn't be popular enough to operate. Streaming platforms have to pay licensing fees to the rights holders, and I'm just not sure a sats based platform like you describe would be profitable enough (or at all) to justify maintaining its operation.

Why wouldn’t it be popular to operate? There’s nothing to operate…
I mean I don't think the demand would be sufficient to pay for the overhead. Unless you're planning on pirating the music and then sending them sats when enough people have streamed their tracks.
If the rights holder gets sats for streamed content as it’s played then no fees are involved. The rights don’t have to be paid for in advance.
Exactly. What fees? The payment goes directly to artist
Are you talking about new artists, or independent artists? I was thinking about popular music like you'd find on Spotify or Apple Music.
Nah. Screw those people 🤣
Ok, so you're thinking more independent artists who would work directly with the platform, and would basically setup their own wallet to receive royalties. That's would be different from what I was initially thinking of. That could work.
