Gone are the days when we watched TV shows or movies through traditional cable or satellite networks.
Now, we are relying fully on the streaming services like YouTube, Netflix, Hulu etc. either as a free user or a paid subscriber. Now, let’s see how the streaming works for the free users.
I guess all of us will regularly watch videos on YouTube. What is the first thing you will do by clicking the video link? Count 1 to 5? Absolutely! It is because you need to wait for 5 seconds to skip the advertisement for watching the content. Sometimes you need to wait for 15 or 20 seconds as there is no option to skip the ad. Now, you have completed watching or skipping the ad and getting yourself ready to watch the original content. Oh no! You forgot to close the banner ad on the bottom of your screen.
Do you feel bored to skip or watch the advertisements? No worries. You can subscribe to YouTube Red (approximately $10 per month) and get rid of the advertisements. But is that affordable for everyone? May not be. Both the advertisers and YouTube are making a lot of money from the advertisements. Why don’t they share a small percentage of that profit with the viewers? Because the users are spending their valuable time to watch those ads, but they are not getting any kind of rewards.
Now, let’s take a different example. Let’s assume that you want to hear only music, not the video. What will you do? You will turn your attention to the music apps like Spotify, Soundcloud, etc. for listening to your favorite music. How will you listen to Podcasts? TuneIn. What about for Audiobooks & FM radio? Two more apps? Are you going to build your own app store with at least ten apps? Managing more apps will be difficult in the long run. Then, what is the alternative?
Current offers an innovative blockchain based app that can be easily integrated with your existing services like Spotify, Soundcloud, TuneIn, YouTube, etc. It can be downloaded from the iOS app store or the Google Play Store. Plus, you will earn CRNC tokens as a reward for streaming content using the Current platform. You can use these tokens to pay for premium videos, buy movie/concert tickets and more. Check the Website, Bounty Thread, ANN Thread and Telegram group to learn more information about the CRNC tokens.
Basically, the Current platform offers many significant features to the users like the ones below:
Also, the Current platform provides the opportunity for the users to earn money for sharing their personal data, only if they are interested. For private users, the platform makes sure that their data is not shared with anyone else by strictly abiding by the upcoming GDPR law.
