Hey Matt, check out Opus. It's meant to be the blockchain 'Deezer' based on Ethereum. It's in early stages, but seems legit. We'll see how it develops.

Regarding LBRY, I like the project very much, but for me it has been very slow and unstable. I think I managed to upload something on LBRY only once. It failed me a couple of times. But I still see it as a promising project. Fingers crossed.
Whens the last time you tried LBRY? Ive noticed the last month or two have been 10x better stability wise than the prior year... most of 2017 was pretty brutal for me as well. I'll check out Opus, thank you for the the tip, would be cool to have a good ETH-based platform for musicians.
true, haven't tried it in a couple of months :)
