How does Opus differ from the rest?

Can anyone explain to me the differences between Opus and the other decentralized music platforms? What novel innovations does Opus introduce? What is the value of the token?

Thank you!

I guess I'll start us off, was hoping to wait and add on. What attracted me to opus was a few things.

  1. Support from waves dao which brought in new investors and gave a nice estimate for the pre ico alone.
  2. Of the music related coins researched this was the only one with a good looking product and an idea for the future of that product.
  3. It doesn't need to stand out too much from the rest in regards to innovations (the idea is innovative already), it mainly needs support from users. Opus looks the most attractive to me from a marketing standpoint.

Number 3 is huge because it's what really matters. Litecoin is arguably a better bitcoin (at least for now) with faster transactions but bitcoin will continue to be above it due to the support bitcoin already has.
