I’m all about this. It seems like you’ve just perfectly described the way forward in a space that has been spinning it’s weals. I’ve watched the methods that Bandcamp has used and I see Metalable as similar but even beyond the music world’s realm.

Yancey, is the basic idea that when a song, book, or video is sold as a record, then that same digital content is never sold in other forms.

Or typically to we expect that one can one still (legally) gain access to the material via other means as well? e. g. can I listen to it on spotify too?

Big money drives these other channels, so it will be hard to ignore them. Maybe this is like Patreon, where folks pay for content that often others can access w/o paying.
