Soon I might be helping a musician on SoundCloud to onboard into V4V. I have never myself used Lightning although I have listened to every episode of Podcasting 2.0 and have a pretty good technical background (iOS Mobile dev by trade)I was thinking about pointing my friend toward RSS Blue, since they are the only hosting company right now catering to V4V musicians. Don't they also support the Value Tag? Any other advice or suggestions?@adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave @StevenB

@Economic_Hitman @adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave I think Podhome supports everything they need, and so does Blubrry. I think they can even keep everything on Sound Cloud and use Podcast Mirror. Each has a different pricing structure. If they already have a website they're paying for, they can upload their music and images to their public folder and use MSP to create a feed. Lots of options depending on their needs/wants.

@StevenB @adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave Thanks, Steven. I'll keep those options in mind. Maybe I will try testing those services myself so I know what the onboarding process is like.My friend says he is removing all his music from SoundCloud next month. Tired of the monthly cost among other reasons. He also uses Spotify and Youtube, and said he will be posting to YT from now on since it is free. So I think cost is probably a big factor for him.

@Economic_Hitman "Free" in the sense that Spotify and YouTube get to make money off the music and not pay the artist any cut from it. 🧐

@adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave @StevenB Btw, I found out that yes, SoundCloud gives you an RSS feed, but it only includes songs you upload after you turn on the feed. It won't retroactively include your old songs.

@harvhat exactly 😩 Hopefully I can convince this musician that V4V is worth it, considering he isn't making hardly any money from the mainstream platforms.

@Economic_Hitman @adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave And yes, RSS Blue supports the value tag and has a reduced pricing plan for musicians.

@Economic_Hitman @adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave If cost is a factor, @Boo_BuryMothman is hosting music for a 3% cut. Your friend sends his tracks and art work and BooBury does the rest

@StevenB @Economic_Hitman @adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave That cut is also three ways, I take 1 percent to read boosts out on BTS, 1 percent to Steven for music side project, and 1 percent to boostbot for the irc and mastodon relay

@Economic_Hitman @StevenB @adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave I upload the MP3’s to a subdomain on our website along with the artwork, then I’ll use those links to build the RSS feed. That’ll get hosted in the same subdomain.

@Economic_Hitman @StevenB @adam @AbleKirby @SirSpencer @dave I just ask that they come with a Lightning wallet, send me (or point to a spot where I can download) the mp3s, submit a track order and I bust everything else out

@Boo_BuryMothman my musician friend is taking too long to respond. Since he is removing all his songs from SoundCloud in December, but he made them all available for free download from SC until then, how about you and I get a head start so that by the time he replies to me, you will already have his music downloaded, ok?He has too much to save all of it, so lets just start with his albums.https://soundcloud.com/greystarmusic/albumsThen when I talk to him I'll let you know if I get the green light from him.

My musician friend sounds interested in V4V, and I'd like to invite him to https://podcastindex.social I know registrations are closed but if he needs help setting up his wallet and things, I'd like him to have an account here. Would that be okay? Are you trying to keep the discussion focused solely on development and not onboarding podcasters and musicians? I understand if that is the case, just please point me in the direction of a better forum for that purpose.@adam @dave
