Solana Music is set to launch a new music platform on the Solana blockchain, aiming to disrupt Spotify by enabling artists to distribute and monetize their work without intermediaries. The platform follows a model similar to the now-shutdown Nina Protocol, which also prioritized artist revenue but failed due to sustainability challenges and lack of alternative revenue streams. Solana Music must address these issues, including finding a viable business model beyond zero commissions, to succeed where Nina did not. The project's success could reshape music distribution and earnings for artists.
