Fair enough. Maybe for the average musician, the short-term payout is ideal. Maybe it's easier to see with something more common... How about the person who posts a tutorial -- spends 10 hours researching, writing, proofing. No one finds it in 7 days, so they get 0 upvotes, $0. Then people come to find it later through search terms. Over then next few years, they get 200 upvotes. Then let's say they have 100 posts more or less like that. The long tail of work adds up to real value. And yet... ### Author rewards = $0 ### Value donated to Steem blockchain way more than $0 (1,000 hours of work for quality content)

Yup I agree with you there. Newer users without an audience have a weird gamble - create longform content that is valuable, or, create smallform content because it's not likely to get rewards in the short term? That is a tough one. I'd posit one approach is to create high quality, "medium-form" content of about 500-1,000 words + some photos, etc, to try and attract votes from upvote trails like Curie, OCD, Sndbox-Alpha, and many others.
