RE: [Coming Up Next In ONE HOUR at 8pm EST/12AM UTC] TimCliff will be my special guest tonight on Monday Night Minnow School on MSP Waves Radio!
The station runs 24/7/365 with almost 70 hours of live content per week, check the schedule at http://mspwaves.com - you just tuned in during a non-live period when only music is running. As noted in the post the interview was as the scheduled time. Each DJ may or may not record and post their segments, and we have nearly 30 show hosts and a wide variety of topics.
I DID record this one and here is the post I just made about an hour ago with the full two hour interview in it:
That's great that you did Record it. I think it's a real shame if the DJ's don't record it and then leave the shows as permanent archives. I'm never going to be able to tune in at a specific time (work, kids etc.) and some things I'll want to listen to again or listen to when I'm driving. Thanks for posting the link! will listen to it now.
Love what Tim said about the projects that will be left standing are the ones that keep adding value and stay on mission when the Crypto bubble bursts. That's encouraging.
Some we can, some we can't when they have commercial music in it, due to the nature of the station's royalty license and play terms with the station and music licensing authorities, but we are working toward better archival solutions. Be sure to follow the show hosts you enjoy, many DO publish re-caps or replays of their talk based shows.
Makes sense. It would be great to have all the shows archived in one place. Using Steemit is complicated. I've never used a social app that requires me to open so many tabs in my browser. All necessary and good apps but keeping track of everything from MSP Radio to Discord to Steemit chat is confusing and I work on animation projects that already require so many moving parts. Be nice if someone could build a steemit interface where everything is in one place, like a Steemit version of WeChat or maybe something like Tweet Deck would work because everything in Steemit is driven by the @username. It's all about a connected world right? If it's too decentralised then a lot of those connections will never happen.
It's a shame also that MSP radio couldn't hook it's music licencing up internally inside Steemit to promote Steemit artists or artists from D-Sound.
We promote a ton of artists and record labels and creatives of all types from steemit on MSP Waves across our nearly two dozen shows with over 30 hosts and growing daily. We operate 24/7/365 as an independant radio streaming outlet.
But steemit.inc is a company. Steem is a block chain. MSP and MSP Waves are independant organizations. None of these have much at all to do with the others. I do not think you are fully understanding WHY there are so many apps and it's beyond the scope of this comment to fully explain it, but stick around you'll see how it all works eventually. The main point is that the steem block chain, The Steem and SBD cryptocurrencies and the plethora of interfaces like steemit, busy.org, chainbb, steemd, steemdb, and the dozens if not hundreds of other sites revolve around the block chain, but are not at all related at the same time. It's an ecosystem, not a monolithic one.

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for taking the time to explain it. No one wants a monolith over an ecosystem!
In Australia in 2016 APRA (our main PRO) collected over $300 million AUD; the majority of which was paid to artists & writers represented by the Majors with heavy radio rotation.
So only artists with Major label backing and Radio benefit from most of those APRA collected funds and it also becomes the perfect shell game for the Majors to shut down innovation in the Indie market. Content strikes are an effective tool to kill creativity.
In 2014 amidst a growing backlash over their practices and over lack of transparency of them not giving money back to smaller Australian artists the ACCC (Australian Competition and Consumer Commission) came close to shutting APRA down.
http://apraamcos.com.au/media/3438/2014finaldetermination.pdf
In the ACCC determination they had serious concerns about APRA's operating practices, their collection methods, their costs, and the transparency of what APRA actually paid to artists. In particular they singled out a practice APRA had been engaging in where they forced terms in their previous license making it an exclusive - not non exclusive - license.
They also gave APRA a very specific warning about modifying their behaviour in terms of not continuing to attempt to become the sole operating monopoly over all Australian music revenue collection.
Point being that most PRO's are Voluntary Associations that pass themselves off as being Governmental authorities when they are not. So if Steemit artists give MSP a license to use their original songs in return for the exposure then isn't that enough given that you have your own platform?
Otherwise doesn't it become like Soundcloud all over again where the Major labels just go through doing content ID strikes against everyone to control the Medium regardless of merit.
In terms of ACR Cloud being the music fingerprinting service being used to protect MSP as it develops, the obvious concern there is how does their business model serve and fit in with the interests of a decentralised marketplace in terms of protecting Copyrights but not doing so in a way that abuses Musicians and attempts to shut down their innovation?

Honestly, I didn't really read that wall of text. I work 24-36 hours between 2-3 hour naps and I don't have the bandwidth for non-project related stuff much. But like I told you before, we play a ton of music from the steemit community, we also pay our legal licensing and royalties for commercial music. I'm not sure what you are driving at. We remain legal at all times, we use a monitoring bot service to help reconcile thousands of songs played each month to pay the required royalties for legal broadcasting to that the up to 84 unique DJs that will fill a full weekly schedule don't have to manually track their song plays and then force a giant compiling exercise on station staff every month.
ACRcloud offers literally dozens of applications, of which we use one for tracking plays.
We are full time broadcasting entity with global reach that runs 24/7/365. We maintain US based legal status as such and follow all required laws that correspond with that.
Thanks.
Sorry I know you are busy and you've done an amazing job building MSP. Thank you on behalf of the community.
I edited my comment down so it's less tedious. Apology about my random gene!
