Anybody bought into Session Studio?

Essentially intended to be the MOADB (Mother Of All Data Bases) of music business meta data and created by some of the guys from ABBA.

The "About" page.

Rick Beato hosts an introductory talk by one of the founders.

Honestly, I'm so overwhelmed learning how to manage all the different orgs to get paid, I feel like a gumball machine operator collecting pennies. I'm not sure if it is a value add or an extra thing to waste my time. It would be nice to get a unified front end to this stuff. At least it has a free tier.

Curious if anyone else has bought in or decided not to and why.

I’ve been following it a little. It started out as an attempt by the largest music revenue producer in Sweden to be paid by Spotify, the largest music consumer in their own country. It has grown from there.

In the US, many of their ideas would need Congressional approval. I’m not holding my breath.
