One of asshats behind this is in 3rd Bass

I see they are trying whatever bullshit they are up to with songs from Coldplay, John Lennon, BTS and Minor Threat…. This will not end well

The hitpiece site is suddenly unavailable  ;D

Well, I got an ACTUAL NFT directly from ROB THOMAS because somehow I wound up on his email list. So there's that.

Looks like that sites scheme was to have  people bid on a song to have “sole ownership” just on that site… apparently for bragging rights and access to the artist  ::)

Hitpiece is basically bidding actual money to be the mayor of a song

Can the word "actual" really be used in conjunction with "NFT"?

I'm partly worried about podcasts. A few of my regular listens just went to "spotify exclusive", but I don't know how far that really goes

Update: Qobuz doesn't have podcasts.

Podcasts actually sound better at a lower bit rate.

So the hitpiece brain trust are doubling down… they put a new beta website and are claiming to be listening.. I’m sure some PR got paid well for this statement and oh my the responses

They also have the ire of David Lowry

Also business plan is apparently sell the NFT and see if the artist wanted a cut, if not they would refund the money, would take down anything by request and were expecting lawsuits as away of raising awareness.. oh a close relationship with Spotify  >:(
