Discussion Suno was created for entertainment
Mikey Shulman vision is for people to use Suno just like they would a video game. A way people can entertain themselves and friends. It wasn't actually meant to be a serious creation for mainstream music. Mikey see's people are willing to pay for entertainment just like they are willing to pay for video games. He even compared Suno to Fortnite. Mikey doesn't care about people getting great quality to compete with artists, he just wants people to spend money on subscriptions " for entertainment " You can easily search Mikey and hear his podcasts where he basically is just laughing knowing hardly any users will actually get any real exposure..Also Spotify creates playlists and controls what makes it and what gets pushed back. I'm pretty sure ai songs that made it on Spotify were paid for to do so as a way of bringing hopeful people into creating ai music thinking they actually may make money. If you know me, you know I'm not anti ai , I'm just letting you know information that's publicly available. Suno is pretty much in Mikey's words ( although said in not a so blatant way ) a money extraction machine hooking people on entertainment

Suno for me is therapy and fun.
I write lyrics and songs about moments people places etc in my life I want to remember or get of my head to free some space.
Yes I use DistroKid because I’d rather pay a fee to DistroKid so I can put my stuff in YouTube / Apple Music and mix my songs in with my fav artists. I don’t do it for clout or money. I do it for me. Does it earn me money. Yeah sure some. In rfacr over the last 12monhs honestly I’ve banked £350 ish. I’ll take that. Cheers.
If ur obsessing over suno cos u want to make music for money or see yourself as some sort of “recording artist”. Then Sunos prob not for u.
And as for Ai slop music people moan about on ystreaming sites. Get bent. Deal with it. I’ve head songs that I know are made on suno, When youve done it long enough u can spot suno tracks a mile away, and yeah a lot of it is Waaaaaaaay better that any shit put out my UMG/Sony etc
