Looks like I got back online just in time, haha, I thought I might have missed this article. Great work man.
I think I might have to look into Musicoin soon. LBRY, I'm not entirely sold on just yet, but it's coin/token seems to be on more exchanges than Musicoin's, so that is definitely a point in it's favor.
One thing that's missing from your otherwise fantastic article is any mention of how to turn the coins/tokens from the various platforms into something of real world value. Even just a list of the main exchanges where you can trade the coins at the end of each platform's section would do. Maybe it's just me, but I think that knowing how/where to exchange a platform's rewards into something more tangible will influence a person's opinion on how viable a platform will be for their own situation.
This really was a great article man, thanks for writing it. Hopefully next year there will be even more options to write about, haha.
Good point about having info on cashing out into USD, I'll keep that in mind for future articles / next years edition. Glad you got back online in time dude cheers mate @the-dagda
