AI merch and a 20% cut of ticket sales. I don’t see how this breaks the stranglehold that labels and Ticketmaster have?

Every year another famous pop star teams up with some huckster startup to tell us the same story... and every year it doesn't pan out.

when you are just another platform that offers services to artists like dropshipping merch and calling yourself "openwav" as if it were some open standard gives off really bad vibes...
