    Winamp will allow content creators to manage their own subscription models. This means they will be able to configure different tiers to provide access to their content.

    As such, subscribers won’t pay a unique price to access the entire content on the platform, but stick with a smaller fee for each artist. A new section called Fanzone will allow artists to manage subscriptions and configure recurring revenue sources.

    Oh great, another subscription. And this one even less transparent than the others. There is probably a niche out there but still.
