If this is your first time hearing about @Steemsongs then please check this post. If you want more information try this q+a and this update.
I wanted to talk about the stages in which @steemsongs will roll out and the features/benefits that will be available within each stage.
The first way any user will interact with http://www.steemsongs.com will be off chain. This means that all functionality will be available but we will not be providing memos or any automation.
I've had a few conversations with @jesta and @anyx and tried to understand the specific parts of Python that I might need to learn in order to point our web dev in the right direction.
@steemsongs v1.0
a user will visit www.steemsongs.com and chose a song/album
user will be directed to transfer appropriate amount of steem/sbd to @steemsongs
user will enter their e-mail address and steem @username
song/album will be sent to that users e-mail address
I'd like to get your input...
Would you feel comfortable providing us with your e-mail address. Of course, we will not be sharing any of your personal data and I'm aware of the need for anonymity within crypto.
Very excited to promote music on steemit and @steemsongs

More information will be coming. That will be v2 of the roll out. First we test/improve with hand picked artists.

Yeah, I think an email address is acceptable. I know a lot of musicians that have recently joined steemit and it's a great project. Look forward to seeing it in action.

I am a musician. I recently joined musicoin and then someone told me steemsongs is coming so I searched for it. Found this.
It's an interesting concept. How do you plan to catalogue the songs from the artists? As in, if I want to release my songs on steemsongs, what do I need to do?
It's been less than a week since I've joined steemit. So pardon me if I don't understand some jargons. yet.
This is a great sign though, I've seen a lot of initiatives for musicians on steemit and it will just keep getting better.
I subscribed on the website with my email.
Cheers!

This seems good!... Asking for e-mail is enough, i don't think anyone could have any problem with this...
Although i still would love to see an "upvote" per stream system, where people just need to upvote a song to be able to stream it directly, of course i think this would need to be attached to the steemit chain, but that would be indeed awesome!

We will be offering downloads not streams. However, you'll be able to up vote an artists posts and if you have enough mVests you'll be able to purchase the track immediately for free!

Ahh i see, well that is kind of similar of what i was thinking... And how about free sample streams?, i mean, how can the user find out if he like the author before purchasing?
Are posts going to be similar to the ones we make here on steemit?... I am really looking forward to this!, cant wait! :D

You'll be able to stream 30 seconds of each song before buying! Also yes - eventually you're actual blog stream will be added to the page (assuming they have relevant tags).

This is the first I have heard of this..there are no links or explanation??! I am assuming it's better than iRC or Torrentz.

It's better than torrents in that artists will be paid for their work.

I think the process is a little bit too long. Would it be possible that you could be given a special download link where you could download the song?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Eventually with memos it will be instant. But you'd still have to log back into your account and retrieve the song... I like the idea of an instant download, but if you can't wait / lose connection you'd need a user page in order to get back to your old download.... so it's a lot extra work at this stage.

Or maybe you can order a song right here on Steemite? Without mail?

I didn't heard about this project before and I think it's really a good Idea to use the mechanics of steemit to sell music. I think it will be an awesome project and I keep an eye on it. Good continuation.

How is this benefiting the artist?
USECASEMakes more sense to me. But then he has to do the work of publishing and marketing of his own. So you'll be acting as a record company?
