You would end up with the paltry selection found on nearly every digital music service that isn't run by Apple. They don't want to undercut their $15 CD business. It would never work because the labels would never agree to it.

I guess you might have to tweak the user % in a way that.īut if the outcry is more about the loss of free music than the loss of this "amazing priceless repository", then obviously this wouldn't work. And then eventually those accounts would just be sold on eBay for some fraction of the $$$ accrued. Granted, you'd probably have people setting up hundreds of accounts with hordes of music just sitting there, collecting $$$ from uploads. The remaining 5% goes to the accounts of the computers where the files were uploaded from.Įssentially for providing and sharing you get a cut, but into your What.CD account which can only be used for music. Q: If it was allowed back up because they agreed to monetize it- maybe $1 to several dollars per song :Īrtists/labels get 70% and What.CD gets 25% to cover costs and some profit. It had a musical selection that any kind of streaming service (or any other legal means of acquiring music) could not even hope to match. I've made more great musical discoveries this year than any year since my early 20s probably.Īs for what.cd, I found it extremely useful for finding out of print or otherwise prohibitively expensive releases. I don't know if you use the Spotify Discovery playlist (basically a playlist generated by Spotify specifically for you, based on what you already listen to) but for me it has led me to a lot of great discoveries lately. In short, it feels like I have no way of discovering new exiting music with Spotify. there's metal and there's metal, you know? And go to any artist and then Similar artists and there is just the same twenty or so artists that circulate around each other, and also they are displayed in huge boxes with just the band name. Go to Metal, under the heading Metal bands click Show All and there's a grid of like 20 bands or so, and it bunches Yngwie Malmsteen together with Deicide. Another problem is discovering music: If you go to Explore (if it's called that in English) you get what is popular and trending, which is not what I'm interested in. Lets take Spotify as an example: There are plenty of artists not avaliable there, one prominent (to me) being Bonnie Prince Billy (or Will Oldham).
Not to mention - as others have done - the streaming services are very lacking in many ways.
