Feedbands Family, something has happened. We've built an entire music economy that pays artists and listeners in Bitcoin while helping to fight climate change.

Sound crazy? It is. What it isn't, though, is a joke. It's real, it's here, and it's live right now. As of today, we're paying our artists more per qualified stream than Spotify (over twice as much), we're paying listeners for listening, sharing and scouting, and we're paying in Bitcoin.



But that's not all. Perhaps you've noticed that the planet is getting warmer. We noticed too. That's why we've built into our platform a way to fight climate change by



Finally, we've overhauled our stations that you can make even better with your input and votes. We've updated the design of our entire site. We've migrated onto a new billing platform that allows updating billing / shipping / payment methods right from within the site.

We Pay You Bitcoin.

All Feedbands members now earn Bitcoin just for listening.

As a member you get get 300 qualified streams per month. These streams pay the listener, the artist, the sharer, and the scout. Artists get paid a full cent, which is over 2x what Spotify pays per stream. Listeners get paid half a cent, which is still more than an artist earns for a stream on Spotify. If you share music and other members stream it, you earn even more. If you share music or a link, and other artists or listeners sign up for Feedbands from your share, you earn Bitcoin on all their qualified streams for the life of their account. You read that right. It's about to get Bitcoin up in here.



You can read our full Bitcoin FAQ here.





We plant trees as you stream.

We plant 1 tree for every 100 qualified streams. We've partnered with







New Billing Platform - Please Upgrade Now to Activate New Features

We've migrated onto a new billing platform. This platform will allow you to update billing, shipping, and payment methods from within our site, safely, securely, and conveniently. Unfortunately, until you migrate onto the new platform, none of your streams will be qualified meaning that you won't earn Bitcoin or plant trees for streaming, artists won't get paid, and some puppies somewhere will probably be cold at night.



Please navigate to Account Settings -> Billing to upgrade onto the new billing platform. You'll need to re-enter your billing information and details. If you haven't paid for March yet, this will be your only charge for March. If you have already paid for March, your previous charge will be refunded once you are on the new platform. Rest assured, you will only pay for March once. Our vinyl prices have stayed exactly the same, but our digital subscription has gone up to $9.99.







New Charts

We've rolled out a new



Since we launched Feedbands the artist selection has been a bit of a black box, as we looked at artists that had multiple singles in the 3-month, 6-month or yearly charts. Now, we've simplified and streamlined it all to be crystal clear. We hope you're as excited as we are about this and will take the time to vote for the songs and artists you love.



Questions and Answers:

How do I start earning Bitcoin for listening?

1. Upgrade to the new billing platform from Account Settings -> Subscription -> Subscription. If you have already paid for March in the old billing software, rest assured that the double payment will be refunded by our detail-oriented Feedbands staff who are ready to make sure this transition is seamless. If you haven't paid for March yet and you sign up for the new platform, your payment in the old platform will be cancelled and billing will pick up seamlessly in the new software this month.



2. Get a Bitcoin wallet address. We recommend



3. Link your Bitcoin wallet address to your Feedbands account by going to Account Settings -> Bitcoin Settings, pasting it into the address field, and clicking save. If there is an error, then you probably did not generate a "Legacy" address, or you might have generated an address for some other form of cryptocurrency.



Please note: your account will not start earning Bitcoin until you've upgraded to the new platform and have linked a Bitcoin wallet. We cannot track or pay the Bitcoin you've earned until these steps are completed.



How can I get help?

Why Bitcoin? Why not use Paypal like everyone else?

We've written an entire blog post about it here.



How do I earn Bitcoin for sharing and scouting?

1. Share music through the site's share features. When other members listen to it, you earn Bitcoin.

2. Share music through the site's share features. When non-members listen to it, and then sign up, you'll earn a little Bitcoin on all of their qualified streams forever.

3. Share your "scout link" with an artist you think should be on Feedbands. When they sign up, you'll earn a little Bitcoin each time their music is streamed.

4. Share your "scout link" with listeners you think would enjoy Feedbands. When they become members, you'll earn a little Bitcoin each time they listen to a song.



Only active members can earn Bitcoin by sharing and scouting, so make sure your membership is active and you have a Bitcoin wallet linked to your account before starting. Bitcoin will not start accruing in your account until you connect a wallet.



Can I earn more Bitcoin than the cost of my membership?

Yes! There is no limit to how much Bitcoin you can earn sharing and scouting. If you sign up a single popular artist with your scout link, and that artist got 10 million streams, you would earn $15,000 in bitcoin. This would totally be a homerun and is not very likely to happen, but just to give you an idea of what the homerun scenario looks like. We have more earning scenarios outlined on the

Do I need to be a Feedbands member and link a Bitcoin wallet to my account to begin earning?

Where do we go from here?

The next few weeks we're doing lots and lots of testing. Then we are going to make some noise. For now, we're keeping it quiet and just letting our customers / users / artists know what's happening.
