  • Israeli publication "Calcalist" revealed jobs where people can earn money by listening to music.
  • Platforms like Slice the Pie allow users to review new songs for payment.
  • Playlist curation on services like Playlist Push offers earnings per song review.
  • Monthly earnings for casual users range from $5 to $20, up to $50 for active users.
  • Some apps provide points for listening, redeemable for cash or gift certificates, often with ads.

The Israeli business publication "Calcalist" has highlighted unusual professions, including opportunities to earn money by listening to music. These roles can accommodate both novices and professionals, offering a departure from traditional office jobs.

The evolving job market has introduced new employment formats like hybrid work and AI delegation, yet core elements like salary and duties remain. For those seeking alternatives to routine office life, "Calcalist" explores unconventional careers, such as a guacamole tasting role at a fast-food chain.

Individuals with a keen ear for music can monetize their passion. While significant earnings are unlikely, platforms like Slice the Pie allow users to listen to new tracks and provide reviews on vocals, recording quality, and production. Some platforms also conduct surveys on new music.

Income from these activities is modest. According to MusicSeed, sporadic users might earn $5 to $20 monthly, with active users potentially reaching up to $50. This is considered supplementary income rather than a full-time wage.

Another avenue involves curating themed playlists on platforms such as Playlist Push. Approved curators can earn between $1.25 and $15 per song review. Success often depends on the playlist's popularity and the curator's existing audience. SoundCampaign also offers opportunities for song evaluations, with payments tied to assessments rather than playlist additions.

Additionally, some apps reward users with points for listening to music, which can be exchanged for cash or gift certificates. These methods often involve watching advertisements or completing extra tasks, yielding minimal income, and are best suited for individuals who already listen to music extensively and seek a small additional income.
