I'm not sure I understand the value of music NFTs just yet. I always think if I was to sell one of my pieces as an NFT, it would come with the sheet musi

hm, isn't this all possible? an NFT contains a pointer to a URL of a digital asset. the asset could be an image, a video, a PDF, basically any digital file. and you could include several URLs. I better provide an example. this NFT is an image, but also an animation: https://opensea.io/assets/matic/0x7ee2c4a5cab5b0d6fdf4c55177b0a8bf99054485/8 if you click on the token ID (under Details), you are routed to this IPFS URL with all the metadata: https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmQRJXgPtfB6DAz9RYnSPJyncPjwyQCEpnAQNDjA4RGDE9 near the end, there are two additional URLs: one for the image and one for the animation. you can copy and open them in the browser. they lead to the original files which you can download. so, for a music NFT I would imagine that you could include the music file, a cover image, a PDF with lyrics,... I haven't seen this yet, but it should be possible. I guess, people at Manifold, Zora, Glass,... could provide help here for setting up a smart contract which includes those URLs.
I see the value more from the perspective of User Generated Content as an asset class (h/t for @christina.lens who might have more view on this) for example if digital art as NFT has value, why wouldn't Music content have value as well : )
