After running the numbers for several artists over a handful of years, from a percentage perspective the income is magnitude higher. Not even the same sport much less same ballpark.

However, in pure current value, its absolutely not there yet. No one is going demu only right now for music and earning a living wage on that alone.

All that said, we just need to scale up for this to be sustainable. The potential audience for streaming is massive. In the bitcoin space alone, if we could snap our fingers and make every bitcoiner demu only, it would be sustainable for all.

I believe in a stairstepped approach. The past 2-3 years I have been focused on bringing awareness to artists. We now have a robust growing library but content outpaced fans now. My focus for the coming year is going to shift to user experience and attracting paying fans.

Its a flywheel approach in which artists and new music attract fans. Paying fans in turn attract more artists and new music.
