    Sometimes, I wonder if Shazam has ear problems.

    @bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. People just underestimated him and didn’t understand what he was capable of.

    @CTPhipps1980 Well they did. They renamed him to Shazam a while back to avoid problems with Marvel I think.

    This COSOMA debate made me realize something… A thread 1/ While everyone is arguing about royalty payouts, I’m seeing something different. I’m seeing a system problem. And software problems are meant to be solved. 2/ If artists don’t fully trust how royalties are calculated… If the public doesn’t understand the monitoring system… If people keep asking where the numbers come from… That’s a transparency problem. Transparency is exactly what technology can improve. 3/ Imagine a platform that monitors radio and TV broadcasts in real time. Not guesses. Not spreadsheets passed around. Actual digital monitoring with an auditable trail. 4/ Imagine every song played being automatically detected using audio fingerprinting—similar to how Shazam recognizes music. Every play gets recorded. Every record has a timestamp. Every calculation can be traced. 5/ Now imagine every artist having their own dashboard. “My song played 287 times this month.” “These are the stations.” “These are the broadcasts.” “This is exactly how my royalty was calculated.” No mystery. Just data. 6/ The platform could also allow broadcasters to upload playlists digitally instead of relying only on manual submissions. Everything becomes faster. Everything becomes easier to audit. Everything becomes more transparent. 7/ And why stop there? Churches… Event organizers… Festivals… DJs… Could also submit licensed digital setlists. The more legitimate usage we capture, the fairer the royalty system becomes. 8/ This isn’t just a COSOMA solution. It’s a solution for every collective management organization across Africa that struggles with monitoring, reporting and royalty distribution. That’s a regional software market. 9/ This is the type of software Malawi can build. We don’t always have to import technology. Sometimes we should build the infrastructure ourselves. 10/ That’s why I’m putting this idea out there. I’m looking for partners who believe Malawi can build world-class technology. Investors. Government. COSOMA. Broadcasters. Let’s build it together. 11/ Imagine Malawi becoming the country that develops one of Africa’s most transparent copyright royalty systems. Not because we complained. Because we built the solution. 12/ Sometimes the biggest opportunities don’t come from asking, Why is the system like this? They come from asking, What if I built something better?

    @garaa_arc The fact he refused to work with Shazam was also a huge problem. His ego got in the way.

    @thorkahh @iREUS_SA I kinda wonder where the spikes come from. I’m not all the way caught up. I just finished issue Abs Superman #20. I wasn’t sure if that was John Henry Irons or if it was Superman himself in that upgraded armor he wore when he pushed King Shazam to another planet in space

    @damiebi10 JLA flopped, Shazam flopped both of them, Blue beetle flopped, wonder woman '84 flopped, flash definitely flopped despite cameos from JLA members, and Aquaman 2, flopped, yeah you guys never talk about the terrible second half you had.

    Popularity wise seems about right. There's some like Batgirl and Supergirl that could go up a step but at the same time I understand why they're on that spot. Same with Shazam I'm 50/50 if he should be there or one step down.

  • FArkonus

    @ShempMeister They should be for whomever is willing to turn out and watch them. But even in comics there are age ranges. Hellblazer and Watchmen was never intended for 8 year olds. Shazam/Captain Marvel was clearly intended for them. Marvel on the whole was intended for teenagers and should really be aimed at kids around 13-15. Almost adult, but not quite. It’s a point where children and adults can enjoy it but the focus is teenagers. It’s why Spidey started at the age he did. DC varied by comic and I’d argue Batman, being obviously influenced by a combination of The Shadow and Universal Horror movies of the 30”s was always intended for a more mature audience. I mean he killed people no problem initially, only when they started teaming him with Supes did they soften him. This is why DC would perhaps be better off not trying to ram everyone into the same cinematic universe.

    @Starseaman71 @FernKalm @JamesPrescott77 And yeah Aquaman and Shazam worked, that's been my point, BvS was bad, and fully because of Zack, but JL was worst, that became because of the studio interference, regardless of John's, the studio still did, and yet after 2 bad movies, those 2 were able to be received well and perform well. So clearly the issue wasn't Zack made a bad movie,he didn't make half a dozen worst **** that droped after JL

    The Shazam issue has been fixed but we won't be able to reach our goal I really hope this doesn't happen again especially since there are covers of the other leaked songs as well

    @larrytooreaal You can just take a screenshot from the edit and send to any ai it’ll give you the answer , if there’s to be something like Shazam for movies it’ll neeed access to your screen , privacy issues would arise

    @NicholasCraven_ Man i heard a sample like a year ago and tried to Shazam it but my service was *** and til this day I'm still trying to figure out the song lol.

    @bekeestitches Shazam was never the problem. The real issue was that DC never figured out how to properly position him in the bigger universe. The character had the potential—execution and consistency were the problem. ⚡

    @ReemAmirIbrahim @reason Wow. Grocery prices in RI about to increase Soooo stupid. Kinda like rent control, units available go down and Shazam it gets worse. ****** clowns

    When you look at this DC movies run from Man of Steel to #Supergirl (removing the TV shows here), this is a monumentally terrible run. At some point, it's WB that's the issue here. WW, Shazam (maybe), Joker, The Batman and Superman are the only qualified successes artistically and financially. Aquaman made a billion, but it's a **** of a movie. I love Man of Steel and it turned a tidy profit, but it didn't blow up the box office. Everything else is mostly a crash and burn, a slight disappointment or a moderate success. This is a Jets or Browns team going 5-12 for the NFL season. YIKES!

    @BatKilmer @UltraBiasedFan Apparently it was Emmerich who was so mad at Cavill for turning down a cameo in the first Shazam film that he vindictively did whatever he possibly could to derail his tenure as Superman.

    @DGen_Media I mean, it really wasn't. The problem is it came out too late after being announced and it didn't have Shazam involved.

    @_NamelessGoon @redaction I remember spending like 30 minutes trying to find it and had to play it on computer and Shazam on phone. So I figured I'd do some community service and just post the band name lol.
