What’s the best way to discover #v4v music in the year 2025 ?
Any apps have proper filters?
I’d love ability to generate a playlist of least played on v4v excluding tracks that I heard already.
Would be also great to exclude by genre/keyword
Sure! Here’s a more concise version of your message with a friendly tone:
“I’m not convinced that choosing music based on the medium you consume it in—whether v4v, radio, or vinyl—is the best approach. For most genres, there’s something special about separating music from money. While commercialized genres like country and rap openly embrace payola-type practices, other styles, like jazz, classical, and folk, often keep a distance between creative expression and financial motives.
I love that when I listen to these genres, I can pretend they came to me freely, untouched by financial gain. It’s a little lie I tell myself, but it makes the experience feel purer. I don’t think v4v needs to change this, and honestly, I wouldn’t want it to. For music like this, it’s nice to let it exist outside the world of transactions and just be about art
Im excited for the v4v future for music. I just wanted to share w/ you my 2025 thoughts as v4v starts to become reality. GM!
Thank you for projecting your views on my question 😘
Did you consider I’m asking about tools not about philosophy?
Yes sorry i wasnt really answering your question but i like the question. I personally only use zap.stream for music discovery on nostr (i like to use it as a ‘shop radio’) but i dont think we are there yet for the ‘record store’ application yet. It will take either a commercial player like Tidal or a p2p sharing thing like oink.me https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oink's_Pink_Palace#
Thank you
Oink.me is up for sale
I take back the thanks
Are you aware of the mute button.
If we have v4v tools for musicians to publish their music we might as well need tools for listeners to find stuff they like ? Or am I supposed to listento stuff I don’t like just because it’s on wavlakes top ten ?
Sure I could just go on listening to stuff I like the way I always used to and just ignore 4v4 cause medium doesn’t matter ?
Must be something wrong with my character but damn does it enrage me when people answer a different question than the one that was asked. Please mute 🙏
Edited my rant with AI
Wow this is going to be the least valuable interaction I’ll have in 2025
Are v4v appss ready for broad music discoverability yet? I think we need to bring on Tidal first or have access to the universal music catalogue ala napster at its peak, spotify and apple musci before i really use them for discovery. I think the podcast app fountain has achieved something close to this for podcasts. Im not sure if we are there for music yet tho nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m
Im sorry i didnt directly answer your question but this question has been asked often since ive been on here. Short answer is that wavlake is the best way to discover v4v music in the year 2025 so far. But we are only a few minutes in
