Why Sell Albums with SHARE?

SHARE is the most flexible solution for selling albums, playlists and packs as collections on blockchain. With SHARE, you can set your own price, configure content access times, enable token gated access and setup revenue sharing splits with collaborators and fans to incentivize distribution.

Selling albums on SHARE means you get instant payments in crypto worldwide and visibility on FORMLESS NETWORK, where you can publicly list your videos to be discovered by others. Additionally, any custom player built on SHARE Protocol can also access your album.

  1. Navigate to SHARE → Create.

  1. Press Sell Digital Products and Share Earnings.

  1. Scroll down to Create a Playlist.

  1. Enter album details such as title, description and price. Select individual tracks to add to the playlist from the Contracts dropdown.

Note that by enabling unlimited access to this content a ZIP file will also be made available for download which is useful for selling packs of tracks such as stems and beat packs. Viewers will still be able to stream the audio in the web player as well.

Note that all contracts must be on the same blockchain network, so ensure you've selected the intended network under Advanced Settings → Network. This will filter contracts in the dropdown to include only ones on that network.

  1. Once the tracks have been selected press Create to process and create the smart contract.

  1. Press View Digital Property Link to view your album purchase link.

  1. Done!
