Owww that is an really easy one.
In all the Web3 music platforms, one crucial stakeholder isn't addressed. The listener. The consumer.
Digital music didn't really took off until services such as Spotify and TIDAL established itself. Plenty more such services emerged since then. Those platforms that embrace the Amazon model, all music, short and long tail, will become and stay the dominant service used, by far the dominant platforms. For a very simple reason. That is what the listener wants.
What I'll write next is perhaps a little black/white statement - but need to put it like that to maximise the chance peeps really start to think about this.
When web3 only offer web3 music on their platform- even when they have a great player in at least a mobile and laptop app - they will not gonna make it. Unless they have deep pockets and can wait until most music is in web3 - I mean most to all mainstream music, from the big boys and girls. But this is gonna take tons of time.
Also, those who create music and like to use web3, be ready to not really sell the music, not getting known in any way, unless they can themselves or through partners, get themself marketed. Again, this is something that needs to be done web2 style, perhaps even using the network that exists.
but but but - first the listener/consumers problem needs to be solved, otherwise nothing makes sense.
A possible solution could be to create the Amazon style platform, get a big ass catalogue of artists/music in simple web2 style and add web3 music to it. Get into a deal with Spotify, or TIDAL, or Apple. Use their catalogue, pay them for this, add your own frontend to it, and mix in the web3 music in it. Add a track-selling service to it as well, for those who want to buy after listening to something in streaming mode. But perhaps nobody is willing to buy. Otherwise Spotify would've had such shop as well.
In conclusion: don't forget about the consumer, the listener. That is the name of the game {WINK}
I can see your point , music can be listened to on individual players at NFT sites but a player for all NFT's and the ability to create playlists would be good, maybe even NFT incentives to those who participate, best playlist or somthing like that. as an artist selling music is not the sole purpose for making music having people listen and enjoy is just as important. or spreading the message .
Incentives are something most peeps in the crypto space talk about, but the masses won't do stuff because it earns them some pocket money. And I think you understood me not 100% correct. When all web3-based music would be in a single player, the masses wouldn't come to such a service. it needs - almost - ALL the music out there in a single player, including all the 'web2' music.
It is for a reason that Spotify is - finally - doing so well. It took them a decade or more, plus a LOT of money, to get where they are. They have all the music the masses listen to. None of the web3 platforms has that.
