# II.Market Problem

The traditional music industry is plagued by structural inefficiencies, centralized control, and a lack of transparency that disadvantages both creators and consumers. Music rights and contents distribution are often controlled by a handful of major labels and intermediaries, leaving artists with a small portion of the revenue generated by their work. This outdated system creates significant barriers for independent musicians and DJs who struggle to gain exposure, monetize their content fairly, or collaborate freely without complex licensing arrangements.

Furthermore, fans have limited ways to engage meaningfully with the music they love or support their favorite artists directly. The current digital platforms prioritize streaming metrics over artistic value and offer few tools for personalization or creative interaction. Royalty distribution is often delayed, opaque, and susceptible to manipulation, causing distrust and financial strain for creators.

Additionally, the global market lacks a unified infrastructure where music can be freely customized, shared, and monetized across borders. This creates friction in cross-cultural collaboration and stifles innovation in music production and distribution. Without a decentralized solution, creators continue to face unfair gatekeeping, while fans remain passive consumers rather than active participants in the music experience.

DMC brings a paradigm shift to the music industry by offering users a new experience — transforming the joy of listening to music into the joy of creating it.
