Yeah that makes sense. I think the problem is it's easy for anyone to go "out of band" with the data with a clone or copy of it that ends up having no link to the digital source it references. In that case you'd need some kind of monitoring or detection to identify these replicas and tag them in some way -- not actually that different from how something like YouTube identifies copyrighted material today.
I think a system like this has to be opt-in and part of a community's m.o., otherwise it gets too bureaucratic. The big question for me is whether a community like this (or many) could eclipse what exists today.

I think all of this is possible, it's the enforcement that's difficult. Not necessarily saying this should be something that's regulated by a entity, more that it would be challenging to codify and automate these kinds of payment splits that accounted for the ancestry of the source material/contributors.
And then, of course, after a certain point, doesn't an idea enter the public domain?

This can be so hard as the person creating the music. Just remember you're just trying to help people find it, not necessarily define it with a label (even though that's literally what you're doing 😂)

To all the builders 🛠️ out there...
We have a new feature we're working on called "Developer Splits". The idea here is a developer could build any kind of client/site/app they want using @npub1yfg…v6vg's library and earn a share of sats for all zaps that come in through their app (artists will still keep 90%, same as always). We're still working out the details but are planning to start a closed beta test soon. So if you're interested in building something or have questions, please get in touch!

We've just started labeling any notes across Nostr that reference content from @npub1yfg…v6vg. The goal here is to make it a lot easier for Nostr clients (including our app) to pull in any social activity related to a specific track or album.
For the technical: we used NIP-32 for labeling and NIP-73 to identify external content, following the `podcast:guid` convention for namespacing based on the content type. With these labels, we can now filter our queries to relays to only send back kind 1985 notes tagged with specific GUIDs (for a track, for example), and then get the event ID's for any notes related to that content. This should be a lot more efficient than doing blanket searches on events and combing through the content for any relevant references.
We'll be testing this internally to see how well it works before rolling out our latest mobile update. Happy to hear feedback on our approach. Special thanks to @npub1unm…d0j2 for some guidance on this.

Ah ok, thanks, I think I follow. We've had similar ideas but thinking of handling it more on the artist side. For example, we start charging a smaller percentage the more an artist earns. It doesn't make sense for us to charge a flat percentage across all levels of revenue -- but we do need to balance out our costs to support higher volumes of payments and streams. This approach, I think, keeps it simple for listeners while still serving artists the best we can.
Anyway, we're still figuring this all out so these are merely ideas we're keeping in mind

2024-09-05 14:16:16

Just pay out a flat rate per stream, they said...

On the subject of hosted solutions: you're totally right that it's a double-edged sword. Something I don't think is talked about much in that regard is the entire system's dependence on the Podcast Index as a centralized database of feeds. Not to say what they've done there isn't awesome -- it is. But I think it's important we recognize that is a single point of failure right now

2024-08-30 17:21:35

This episode is so insightful.
I think for starters, what we could do is add an option on every track to generate a raw, value time split template for you with all the guids pre-filled and the timestamps empty. Then all you'd have to do is click on the track, get the template, and then fill in the timestamps before putting it in your feed. I think that'd take most of the headache out of constructing the block for that specific track but let me know if I'm wrong.
Also, the remotePercentage value is set to 99 on the songs on our episodes so we can have some visibility into which songs get boosted during an episode.

That all makes sense. And it is totally confusing, even if you're familiar with how it all works. Like until you just mentioned tracks don't have feeds but albums do, I had even forgotten that 😄
Let me know if there's some kind of search feature or API on Wavlake we're missing that could help at all. I think writing your own feed (or some version of that) will be the way for a while, but maybe we can help make it less painful.

Why dinosaurs are so damn cool
- they're crazy old (like hundreds of millions of years)
- they were huge
- their bones fossilized and survived all this time until we dug them up
- no one knew they existed for centuries
- we still don't really know what they looked like, but it's fun to guess
- they dominated the planet for millions of years and then basically vanished

I recently read Eye of the Heron by Ursula K LeGuin and it gave me another perspective on good fiction, which is it helps us recognize the things in our world we accept and take for granted as the natural order of things... when in fact so much of it is of our own creation and the possibilities are so much bigger than what we see in front of us. It was a good read.
