rossbates (npub1u65…332p) two things I'm thinking for the kind 2002 event that would potentially make it more interoperable / usable.

1) The "i" tag can just be any general information about how to find the song. The MBID schema is great if a user has it, but I don't think it needs to be limited to that. Having `spotify:track:{spotifyId}` or `tidal:track:{tidalId}` would allow clients to more easily link to a spot where the song can be played.

2) I think adding a `source` would be fun, then a client like scrobble.nostr-music.cc can show which player the the scrobble event came from. Cmus, spotify, last.fm, etc...

This would also tie in nicely to building out a more structure graph of how to find music on the web. Something can ingest this data piece together the spotify link, tidal link, mbid link, etc... and turn that into a Song event.

I almost have a little app done that will handle publishing these events directly from your spotify plays, rather than having to go through last.fm, and I think that will open up this event kind to many more users.
