Podcasting 2.0 shill trying to spread the good word of Value4Value and DeMu.
Proud Knight of the No Agenda round table.
Like we mentioned the different bots that go on. There's an army of bots in the IRC. their Nosterbots, etc. All of these things are built by our producers, you know, like Cotton Gin, Chad F, Eric PP.
These guys that are in the chats, Servo, they're the ones putting the things together and putting them out there, you know? So as your audience grows and as you start to find those finer-tuned values, you'll start to find people who will do those things that are harder for you to keep up with.
Things like promotion, things like additional tools. Some people might turn you on to tools that, you know, you never even heard of or thought of before. And they're like already ready to go. You just add your show to it or whatever. Spend a lounge IRC instance up, those kind of things, you know, like.
there's a lot of value that people can just give if you let them, you know, I've seen a lot of people get like really hung up on creative control and like everything control, you know?
And so like, if they didn't do it directly, the whole thing top to bottom, then it's not like good enough to put on their show or you have like a contribute. And it's like, all right, uh, I'm a little, you know, I'm going to have a little humility and accept the value coming in.

Suter did not say which stablecoins or which blockchains Cash App intends to support. “Our principles are to be chain and coin-agnostic right now, and to go where customers lead,” he said. “We’re not going to support 100 coins and 100 chains.”
He did add that each user will get a blockchain address associated with their account. Any stablecoins sent to that address will be converted into dollars within Cash App, and dollars sent out of the platform to a blockchain address will be converted back into stablecoins.

What’s everyone using to highlight stuff
Yeah, but it’s not very obvious
I found new tracks through LNBeats.com, built by StevenB (who also created Music Side Project). It aggregates music by searching the Podcast Index, making it easy to find new tracks. At first, I would find more music than I could play in my nine-track show every week.

V4V is a concept where podcast listeners actively contribute one of the “Three Ts”: Time, Talent, or Treasure. Since I self-produced and self-hosted my podcast, I didn’t need much of others’ time or talent. Treasure, however, was different. Contributors to the Podcast Index developed a technology called valueTimeSplits, which uses a tag in the Podcast Namespace that allows creators to receive direct payments via a Lightning wallet (Lightning is a layer of Bitcoin) as their content is played. This works for both live-streamed podcasts and downloads. I wanted to see if I could make it work, because if I could, anyone with some technical know-how and a willingness to experiment could do it too. I saw it as a new way for people creating content to make money from that content while bypassing gatekeepers like Patreon, PayPal, Apple, and Spotify. You have to trust in Bitcoin though.

Here’s the tl;dr, I ended the show because I was unable to keep up with the technological changes and it was no longer enjoyable to find new music.

I love my LLMs, and am never mean to them. Large language models are a beautiful thing, and if they ever reach sentience… well, let’s just say that I’m not taking chances.

If you’ve ever listened to No Solutions (aka the most high-fidelity recordings of wind, bus stops, sledge hammers, lawn mowers, leaf blowers, and heavy traffic known to man), you’ll know that writing code by hand is something that boomers do. And since I self-identify as generation alpha, the first order of business was to switch my vibe machine to YOLO mode.

Castr.me, for example, was basically created in one prompt. All it took was to feed it the Podcasting 2.0 spec, and tell it to build a thing that translates a nostr feed into a Podcasting 2.0 compatible RSS feed

This repo is the home of all template files and instructional materials for Decentralized Music (Demu) publication. Artists are encouraged to use these materials and template files to aid in the self-publishing process. These materials are offered on a value-for-Value basis. If you receive value from any of the materials presented, please consider returning that value to Spencer or the self-hosted Demu movement in the form of a contribution of your time, talent or treasure. The easiest way is to leave the Value Split for "the Wolf" intact in the RSS feeds you create using this template. Other ways include donations over Lightning to sirspencer@getalby.com, contributing to decentralized music projects and telling other artists about decentralized music.

One implication of “everything is becoming television” is that there really is too much television—so much, in fact, that some TV is now made with the assumption that audiences are always already distracted and doing something else. Netflix producers reportedly instruct screenwriters to make plots as obvious as possible, to avoid confusing viewers who are half-watching—or quarter-watching, if that’s a thing now—while they scroll through their phones. As the writer Will Tavlin reported:

YouTube has quietly become the most popular platform for podcasts, and it’s not even close.

(Just an example) People who run the podcast feed on their own website steal potential income from me by circumventing a good podcast 2.0 platform like the Fountain app. It's probably well meant, to spread the word, but in general, it's profiting from content in the most lazy way possible.

Soon, however, such goodwill people will start to be disgruntled or at least less happy about the V4V model's returns. Let's face it, Value4Value was a marketing term invented by Adam Curry, along with Dave Jones, to launch a concept as an anti-movement against Apple's hegemony.
It was meant to preserve free speech (that, it succeeded in; they've put the "free" in free speech).
For themselves, because they had the first-mover advantage, it worked out fine. And until like the end of 2015, it worked very well.

Abundance breeds boredom. When there’s no end of choices, each choice feels disappointing. Listening to or watching one thing means you’re not listening to or watching all the other things you might be listening to or watching. Reynolds quotes a telling line from Karla Starr’s 2008 article “When Every Song Ever Recorded Fits on Your MP3 Player, Will You Listen to Any of Them?” Confessed Starr: “I find myself getting bored even in the middle of songs simply because I can.”
And so, bored by the content, bored by the art, bored by the experience, we become obsessed with the interface. We seek to master the mechanism’s intricate, fascinating functions: downloading and uploading, archiving and cataloging, monitoring readouts and notifications, watching time counts, streaming and pausing and skipping, clicking buttons marked with hearts or uplifted thumbs. We become culture’s technicians. We become bureaucrats of experience.

What Musicians earn on Tune.FM
Artists earn one cent per minute when their songs are streamed on Tune.FM. That compares to the $0.003 to $0.005 per total stream that Spotify pays. The exact amount of the payment varies depending on the type of subscription (Premium or Free), the country of the listener, and the specific agreements Spotify has with artists or their labels.

Value4Value is a monetization model, a content format, and a way of life. It is about freedom and openness, connection and free speech, sound money and censorship resistance. The largest success to date of applied V4V is Podcasting 2.0. Nostr’s zaps are another example.
