     @sdouglass I guess it depends on the crowd. But music videos have worked for me -- and for getting friends to listen to music - thats about it.

     As far as getting my music listened to, I had a windfall of music streams (around 5k on spotify) after a couple of songs were used by a popular youtuber on a video.

     I talked about it here: https://freeradical.zone/@frigginglorious/110153759242186459

     @frigginglorious I guess it's not going to be useful for that, sorry, haha. I posted something similar on Facebook and did get some replies there. They were from other middle-aged white guy musicians like me, though. I was hoping to hear from people less like me to get some different perspectives. The replies there were almost all in favor of releasing albums for whatever that's worth.

     What quantity/frequency/ method of delivery is most likely to get you to listen to music shared by your friends? Albums feel like a lot and are hard to share on social media. EPs feel like asking a lot less but are also hard to share. It's a lot easier to share a single song, especially if you have a video for it. But making videos is a ton of work. And how many EPs/singles could a friend release and promote how often before it gets annoying? And is genre variety on an album/by an artist ok?
