Adult learners abandon dense music theory books. Build 5-minute daily challenges that teach concepts through popular song snippets. Monetize through song-specific theory packs (e.g. 'Taylor Swift Chord Progressions'). Launch with just major/minor scales before adding genres. Risk: YouTube creators already dominate casual music education.
