Blockchains are ledgers that can't be changed or corrupted. Much like an Australian warranty, they provide the guarantee that you'll get what you paid for or agreed to. That makes them ideal for musicians who want to create a smart contract that automatically pays them when users stream their songs. \\
It's easy for anyone to create these smart contracts, helping small independent musicians compete with larger labels. Ultimately, it funnels more money back to artists and away from intermediaries.
