Inspiration

DrameBase was created to transform how media content—such as music, video, and other types of entertainment—is delivered, consumed, and paid for. Complex, customised content and service bundles are beyond the capabilities of current technologies. Managing digital rights, royalty collections, and transactions across many intermediaries is particularly complex in today's digital ecosystems. The use of a Blockchain, and its shared ledger approach, can help to improve the media supply chain and decrease copyright infringements by adding transparency, security, and control.

What's next for DrameBase

DrameBase's major goal is to expose blockchain technology to a larger audience, unlike many other blockchain ventures that focus primarily on a core notion. While we have invested much in infrastructure improvements, we are equally committed to campaigning and building DrameBase into a platform as widespread as the traditional streaming platforms on the internet.
