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#

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

Edited my rant with AI

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!

May auld acquiantance be forgotten

Got it thank you. I will let you know how it goes this week nostr:npub140f80kgv4w3q4ms0ruz6drfye5ghhtwpypws6xc6q3gn2lfjhyhsn0lxwm

Also i have a few days off so i can do a little bit of reading and trial-and-error

So i have a spare intel macbook pro. Would like to run a bitcoin node, a lightning node perhaps, and do other things. Have an almost zero experience level with programming anything outside but willing to learn. Should i set it up to boot a linux OS? Where to start

Will the #casine be open on New Year’s Eve???

Nostrudel for testing and things and learning about nostr function. Zap.stream to stream video and stereo sound of my record player spinning tunes. Damus and primal interchangeably because of ease of use , although lately i fucked up all my lightning wallets it seems, so i mostly use primal because it is really idiot proof having the wallet in the client. I used to use snort.social but it didnt keep up with primal and damus so i havent used snort in a while.

Cornychat initially for the #casine But lately just chatting with the buds on there

@kieran ‘s Zap.stream is my favourite nostr client

Nowtrudel , damus , zap.stream , cornychat , and primal. I used to use snort as well but i havent in a while

Sent my whatsapp group chat a link to a signal group chat they have all used signal before but we have struggled to make the transition over the last few years. Any tips for giving them the push away from meta stuff?
