From what I understand wavlake is actually more of a centralized system. They are using podcastindex.org and Adam Curry helped get wavlake on the map because wavlake is using RSS and he was able to play music from them in a podcast. And it's also thanks to podcasting 2.0 who invented the wallet switching technology. There are artists who self host on our own websites and have our own nodes/wallets for Bitcoin and the closest we get to a centralized system is podcastindex being the directory for all the apps out there. All the apps that people can listen to wavlake artists in. But you can't listen to self hosted artists on wavlake. It's one way. And on wavlake you have to agree to wavlake terms(which aren't bad) but they are still like a middle man in this way. If people boost/zap our self hosted songs, the splits are visible how much to who right in our feed for all to see. Trasnparent. Wavlake just goes to wavlake, then they split it internally, not in the open. That might be fine. Maybe it has to do with how their wallets work. But I'd rather not create another industry to be controlled by people at the top. Terms and conditions can change and if they create a system you end up relying on and then they tell you they are taking more fees, you have to agree cuz everyone's already built around this centralized system. We want to create a community of people who value your music by making top quality music and people will decide for themselves how much it's worth. Just some of my scatterbrained thoughts on the subject 😁 - TJ
