I've been listening to content on Audius for the last couple days and I've been absolutely blown away by the quality of the UI and the content catalogue. The Audius team has clearly put in a ton of effort into the product over the last year!! Quick question - when does the mobile application get released??

@vivek_nair Thanks Vivek!! 🙏 Native mobile apps will be out early next year! For the time being we've made the web app as mobile friendly as possible.

the Team behind Audius is all the time on discord giving attention to what we say, talking to us, trying to solve our specific problems and this is truly wonderful. For me it's the most important thing.

Finally a good use case for a blockchain dapp! Apps like SoundCloud have been failing musicians for years, I'll really be rooting for you guys.

This looks dope! Quick question @roneilr, is the heavy focus on EDM artists a choice or did this happen by chance? As a musician it immediately makes my feel like my music (Hip Hop) would be out of place on the platform. The recommendation options during the sign-up process reinforce this even more. Is there a plan to balance this out?

@roneilr @alexanderspoor I feel the same way. I don't listen to EDM, I predominantly listen to hip hop like you, so the recommendation choices were pretty irritating to me. Hopefully they fix this.

Very intriguing product! What is the situation for 3rd party bootlegs/mashups? Soundcloud takes them down as a DMCA violation.

Really liking the look of the ui but my feed doesn't seem to be loading. Also, during sign up, I signed in using twiter but it didn't pre pop my display name or profile picture like it said it would.
Chris Cheshire
Ah it has loaded now after a couple of minutes. Seems to be working flawlessly now. Very impressed with the audio quality and ui. Really hope this takes off. I'd love to know more about the tech behind this and how it works.

Seems that after listening to a set for maybe 20 minutes, the track is pausing and I can't make it play again without refreshing and skipping in to where I was before.

DOA. Nicely designed though.

I sign up, when i try login it doesn't take me to my profile? and it shows sign up?

Interesting but every time I try to upload music, I get a "Whoops.... something has gone wrong" (very nonspecific error) and I have to restart the entire process from scratch. I tried more than once, it is a little difficult to keep entering the song meta then have to do it over.

I am on bandcamp and earning. Can't see why this is not the same with the stats in smart contracts for my colaborations. Plus sync uses. I am waiting to see what u can do

how do the artists make money from their songs placed on the platform like they do on spotify and deezer?
