Sure, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that under this model, small artists with little money seem to have a strong incentive not to put their music up for sale, which will cost both them and Bandcamp potential profits.

Maybe they could offer fans to sponsor a membership for artists if they want to unlock premium features.

Fair enough. But musicians are not really “any type of venture”.

Bandwagon is already taking on a risk by hosting music for free for listening. If they could find ways in which both them and the artists could profit from music published on the platform that lacks the commercial potential to justify a €10 subscription, this would be a win/win. Considering that it seems they are already hosting the music for free.

Could also be two separate things? I have a) dumped Windows and b) installed Lineage.

We’re outsourcing thinking to a bullshit generator controlled by mostly American mega-corporations who have repeatedly demonstrated that they want to do us harm, burning through scarce resources and rendering creative humans robbed and unemployed in the process.

What’s not to hate.

Not strictly a scam, but there’s a little money to be made creating viral content on Facebook. They receive a tiny portion of the ad revenue from Facebook when they generate engagement.

It’s just Facebook sucking really.
