Answer:
What’s the catch?
A platform that’s completely free, unlimited, personalised, and doesn’t even require sign-up details in order to use it may seem far too generous. You might expect to be met with a crippling number of ads during your time listening or a restricted number of skips, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Jango states that guest users can expect some level of commercial interruption. However, those logged in through Facebook can expect only one interruption per day. Even more impressively, no setbacks are experienced by those choosing to listen in Jango’s app. Unlimited skips can be expected for all which perhaps elevates Jango from some of its competitors. However, no platform can be perfect.
Independent artists and Jango radio
Jango supports independent artists by giving them a platform to present their music. Jango explains that the music of independent artists will occasionally pop up on a user’s station. The user will then be asked to rate the track by upvoting or downvoting. The accumulation of votes a new artist receives influences the amount of exposure they get on the platform.
Independent artists can also receive tips through the form of Jango’s virtual currency ‘NeuCoin’. Each Jango user is given 25 NeuCoins every week to spend on tipping Independent Artists. This is a welcome gesture to support and encourage new music. Every user also has the opportunity to save NeuCoins by simply using the platform on a daily basis. Whilst the exchange rate may not be very high, it can’t be a bad thing to earn a bit of cash for simply engaging with the platform.
