I’m a professional musician. That’s my day gig. For artist treatment, bandcamp is above and beyond the best. I recognize it’s not necessarily the best for the listener, but (aside from people who do it as a hobby, which is totally cool) you won’t find a musician who doesn’t like bandcamp best.
Something like Bandcamp with Bitcoin LN integration would be cool. Or Bandcamp could integrate Bitcoin.

That would be ideal. Unfortunately, the folks that develop Bitcoin apps believe in “value for value” music, which is literally the exact opposite of what it sounds like (free music for tips), so it falls on deaf ears with basically every musician I've ever explained it to. I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad model, but it certainly won’t incentivize the kind of musician who publishes on bandcamp to sign up.

I've bought music off of bandcamp in the past. And I am all for independents, but sometimes you want to listen to that obscure song from highschool 30 some years ago and the big services will be the ones that have it.. so I need one.
