> The idea of NFTs is incredibly appealing to artists because the technology could allow for artists to sell music that can only be played by some client if the NFT for a track or album was authentic.
That's nonsense. DRM is just DRM and there's no way to stop piracy. If one person can listen to the track, that person can copy the track end of story.
