I'm excited about Tonara, but the app itself seems like a tech demo for that specific technology.

They have yet to experience the pain of a thousand cuts that (that my team and I have gone through) that is working with the music publishing industry.

The thing with these apps is that people who don't really understand them group them all together. "Oh, another music-y app for fancy music people!"

While their app now is not remotely a competitor, if they actually get some real funding, they could pivot in a number of ways to compete against apps like mine, because they've been able to position themselves well in the "music app startup" slot by presenting at TC.
