1. None of these things became possible because of NFTs. They were always possible, but no one particularly wanted to do them.
They still don't sound compelling to me, either. Why would I want to vote on the plot of a show? Who has been watching a show and thinking, "This is a dictatorship. It should be a democracy!" The dictatorship is the point.
2. The NFTs are just a way to transfer a centralized account. By themselves, they mean nothing and aren't any more decentealized. The centralization is still the vendor, who can just decide to stop honoring the NFT any time they want to -- rendering it worthless.
It's just a more secure way to trade an auth token, and no one seems particularly interested in doing that now except for scalping tickets or buying a video game profile.
easier reselling things because reselling things sometimes involves regulation and by saying fuck regulation it makes it easier?
Not really the most convincing argument
also selling a, um, "Greg will lead three 90 minute sessions live over the course of the week." for 650 USD through to 6500 USD, and providing zero ownership of that while also calling it "shared ownership", well it ties in with the general perception of NFTs being near meaningless, doesn't it?
If web3 is tickets-for-rich-kids, then I'd still rather just buy normal tickets
