Hello Squeezebox community! I have been a huge supporter and user of Squeezebox for 6 or 7 years now. Although I never post anything, I have been to the forums many times to get help. It is truly a great community and I thought it would be a great place to get some feedback on a business idea I am working on.
As a middle-aged person with kids, I have found it difficult to keep up to date with what is going on in the music world. Especially with things like Spotify that give you every single song you would ever want on demand, I feel lost in a world of way too much choice. In order to combat this feeling, I generally look to experts to help me find music that will keep me up to date, but even that doesn't always work so well. Enter BoxSett (www.boxsett.com) Get 8-10 albums curated by a record label (after all, aren't they the natural curators out there) and offer them to listeners at a Pay What You Want price (similar to Humble Bundle) These albums would then be available for download in any format you would like for as long as you want them My hope is that this will provide listeners with a few benefits: -An in at the record label who has hand-picked an amazing set of music -Unbeatable price -No more "overwhelmed" feeling -New relationships with artists -Knowing where their money is going -DRM free, any format music (FLAC, MP3, AAIS, WAV, etc) -Simplicity What do you think? Is this something you would try? If yes, great! Want to help? If no, bummer, but why? Thanks! --Matt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ emmbeegee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34339 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102931
