After a few months of building, and the generous help of artists who have participated in our trial period, https://fairplayer.band is open to the world. If you are an artist that has a #Faircamp site, or someone wanting to listen to music from independent artists, come and tell us what you think!
Special thanks to @radisolar @blankfosk @helenbellmusic @maciac @sofisoft @kidlightbulbs @aymanhamad @laribal @txels @james @Omar @choan who have already contributed their music in this very early stage!

Dear @mirlo, take a look! We've been creating a new member of the independent music distribution family.

Dear @fairplayer and Faircamp community, I love your work to giving back control to the artists, the musicians.
How can we as listeners give back, make a donation as a token of our appreciation? I mean beyond the Kofi/patron/liberapay links that some artists publish on their site. Ultimately the economics are important, so I'm curious what's your vision/plans for that. I guess it's different from the pay2own model from https://resonate.coop
Amazing what you are doing. This helps with the #boicotspotify

Hi!
Thanks for your support!
Your question points to a very relevant aspect. We want to implement tools to reward artists in the next steps.
We are organizing our local ecosystem in order to generate debate between listeners and artists to reach a fair system. Our idea is to give the tools to adapt to the needs of each community.
Our vision is that, in the end, both control and responsibility of sustainability should be on artists but also listeners.

I've been dying to see this vision take off. decentralized Spotify where the music comes from artists' websites and some version of your friends' boosts replace their algorithm. then maybe we can support them via a monthly donation that gets automatically and directly paid to them based on the percentage of our time we spend with their work. #PublicPatron

@wjmaggos @fairplayer @radisolar @blankfosk @helenbellmusic @maciac @sofisoft @aymanhamad @laribal @txels @james @Omar I love that. I started building out https://auxpack.club to help on the patronage side, by enabling artists to band together and reduce exposure to processing fees

Hi! Thanks a lot!
We are not working on it specifically although we have them on the radar. Our idea is to work together with the decentralized musical ecosystem (some of it we are already in contact) towards standardized protocols.
We believe in cooperation rather than competition and we want to take special care on creator's consent.

@kidlightbulbs @wjmaggos @fairplayer
That is very interesting! Personally, I think that individual patronage can drive to dangerous dynamics on the artists and I am more for a "community" of artists patronage.

there was talk of trying to do this on an @lorenzosmusic episode with @fluffy. yea working out some kind of open protocol seems key.

Hi!
License is defined by each artist. Our music local ecosystem has a complex mixture of different licenses and we want to remain inclusive here.
This doesn't mean that free culture should not be promoted. Fairplayer is free software and can be installed by anyone. One could host a fairplayer that only accepted music with free licenses (and probably this make a lot of sense).
-
>not seeing anything about creative commons here
I mean it's not own by the service.
It's heavily reliant on how the user handles licensing.
>ie looks like a spotify/bandcamp competitor, nothing more
Except it's open and accessible without requiring a license deal with the service provider. -
@jeffcliff @NonPlayableClown @blankfosk
The approach we propose is that artist hosts their music so they retain high degree of control, keeping very low resource-demanding the player so it has not to scale much and making core mutual consent.
We are promoting a lot of contacts between listeners and artists in our local ecosystem in order to reach a fair rewards system that is adequate for everyone.

@wjmaggos @fairplayer @liaizon @benpate @lorenzosmusic Hello, yes! The referenced protocol spec is at https://github.com/PlaidWeb/Canimus and I know there’s interest from Simon Repp in adding it to Faircamp. I’ve got some prototype implementations of the protocol up on my own site https://sockpuppet.band/ as well as on https://songfight.org/

Hi! Thanks!
For now, we are focusing in maturing a responsive web app. So an API is not in the early road, although new features will arise from the community needs.

@fbulow Hi!
There has not been a debate on that, but there is not any plan in the roadmap to support audio files DRM from the player.
