@ryanleslie is one of smartest people at the intersections of music and tech. He's worked with everyone from Jay-Z to Kanye, and his startup is funded by Ben Horowitz and Betaworks. He drops his album today on PH and stops by for an AMA. Check it out and ask him a question. I recorded a podcast with him which will be released soon.

Yo Les, your vision and execution of these marketing campaigns amaze me...! When will your next round table discussion be and how can a person get signed up for one. I'd love to hear more in depth information regarding your strategies. Thanks again for inspiring new approaches! R.S.

Dear Holmes

I love this. It makes me question whether all-inclusive streaming is really the only true path for artists these days.

@msitver thanks for this article! I'm building a scalable way for any creator to do this and make the bulk of their core revenue from the model. For me, your suggestion that "this model is never going to be the major revenue generator for artists" strikes a nerve and proposes a challenge that we at DMM are very passionate about solving! I took my first group on a light jet today - felt amazing to give them that experience. They'll remember that forever, as will I. Somehow I believe that they'll support me and the music for as long as they can afford to do so.

@ryanleslie What's the best way for a startup who wants to work with you to blow you away?

@eriktorenberg show proof of the human value of your product. Why did you build what you've built and how is it really creating a better life experience for the user?

@eriktorenberg Chance is moving right now. Rich Homie Quan is staying independent and did 2M on a mixtape. Phora just did 65K on a kickstarter - no label. I'm inspired by the next wave of DIY cats out here killing. the game.

Why did you choose to roll your own Gumroad version instead of using something like Patreon?

@staticsteven I love what Jack and Tyler and Heather are doing at Patreon. I use the platform for my studio videos. For the 1000 people in the lifetime song-per-month model I really need an API that will talk to my phone and an easy delivery mechanism for the content. @Delk has been a real champ with this rollout and Gumroad's focus on (nearly) frictionless payments + multiple language checkout + the consumer facing mobile app were the deciding factors here for me. We could have built this ourselves - the challenge was I had the idea on Friday and released at midnight! Hahahahahah!
