AB  - The  purpose  of  this  Note  is  to  provide  an  in-depth analysis  of  the  problems  the  music  industry  is  facing in  order  to demonstrate  why  applying  blockchain  technology  is  an  insufficient resolution. The Note will also propose two alternative recommendations and  argue  for  adopting  those  blueprints  instead.  The  Note  unfolds  in three parts. Part I examines the ongoing struggles of the music business and  its  failed  attempts  to  remedy  them.  Part  II  provides  a  primer  for blockchain  technology,  featuring  a  discussion  of  emerging  use  cases, and  evaluates  whether  implementing  blockchain  technology  is  a  viable solution  for  the  music  industry.  The  final  portion  offers  two  proposals prescribing more   suitable   measures   Congress   can   undertake   and explores   the   only   possible   value   that   the   industry   can   currently extrapolate from blockchains: tokenization.
