voise (vsm) clone

Hey,

let me copy our previous response regarding the same type of accusation:

"Sorry to say this, but to call Voise VSM a decentralized music sharing platform is completely incorrect; They store everything on their central server.

1.Voise raised their money with no product.
Opus is 3 steps ahead. We raised a round of VC funding this January, and now we have a working beta and a demonstrable product.

2. Voise, Is simply a coin that can only be used on their website. That's it. It's basically bitcoin with a different name.
Opus is an entire music sharing infrastructure. We use IPFS and Ethereum such that all songs and metadata data are stored decentrally and rapidly on the IPFS swarm and Ethereum.
We are also going to release APIs for third party player developers to create their own Opus players, ensuring decentralize in every aspect of the stack.

If you have more questions regarding the technical development, check our Github or ask us on our slack: http://slack.opus-foundation.org/"

voise (vsm) clone

From what I know Opus had already a working beta while vsm doesn't at the time of their ICO. As seen on their roadmap they are still on alpha testing this year. Which points to the fact the vsm only hit the market first but not the very first music-oriented project out there.
Their token also seem to be aimed only to be listed and used on exchanges.

While Opus tokens gives it's holders the ability to vote on the OpusDAO. Important marketing and development decisions are made by the Opus DAO which is voted on every month. Each vote is weighted by the number of OPT the voter holds, having more OPT will enable you to have a greater say on the direction of the Opus project.

You'll find more info about OPT on the Whitepaper

You can find more about IPFS (interplanetary file system) on http://ipfs.io/

IPFS is very cool technology and OPUS will be HUGE.

it will attract more investors after the development of the said apps has been done, I'm sure the dev team will be focus more on how to make this
project usable and a long term success, I'm excited to see what would be the great outcome, good luck team.

You can use our demo already - http://opus-foundation.org/demo.html
It is all based on Etherum and IPFS. For users, it will be exactly the same as Spotify and that is our goal. For artists, completely opposite. Instead of 20% of the revenue, they will get 100%

Actually the entire system is already running on Ethereum and IPFS. (You can try it out using metamask on the advanced demo) However, there are still other things that are in the pipeline such as the OpusDAO and API information which are in the pipeline. Our target crypto-focused launch is November of this year. However, Ethereum still has some EPIs and Raiden etc. Which we will be critical to providing a smooth user experience and low tx fees as Opus scales to the mainstream audience.
