The Future of Music Streaming is Decentralized

Description:

Tired of third parties controlling the music industry? Meet Audius, a music sharing platform designed to provide artists a direct link with their listeners. Using decentralized technology, Audius is able to ensure artists’ rights to and control of their own music, and provide a censorship-resistant platform for expression and distribution of artistic works and compositions. Audius uses IPFS as the core decentralized storage component in their mission to give everyone the freedom to share, monetize and listen to any audio. This panel will explore the advent of decentralized music streaming and sharing, how to use blockchain technology to eliminate third payment parties and get artists the funds they deserve for their work, and how fans can engage with their favorite artists.
