DelusionalGaga 29,205 Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I'm still clueless how she did it. Like did people hear LWYMMD or RFI on the radio and actually thought "oh wow I need to hear more of that"? It's good but not THAT good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's extracting as much consumer surplus as possible from a business standpoint. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like did people hear LWYMMD or RFI on the radio and actually thought "oh wow I need to hear more of that"? It's good but not THAT good oh well... lemme quote the tea an Adele fan posted on ATRL .... I don't like how she's exploiting loopholes/mugging off her fans to up her sales and I think it's her worst album to date, but legit mad? Nah. The main one is attempting to quadruple count single UPS preorders by including 3 digital copies and then hiking the price fans pay so that divided by four each copy is enough to count for a sale. Then there's equating buying her album to the right to buy tickets. Sure, plenty have done album bundles as of late (I don't agree with those either but w/e, another discussion entirely) but she is the only one to do this whole 'boost' concept, which is currently unregulated, and as I said, is hardcore mugging off her fans. Also, keeping her album off streaming for a week. I know the response is 'but you're fav is Adele!111'... yes, but the principle is different. If Taylor had continued her position that she doesn't support streaming period, and only wanted her singles on there, or the album on paid services, fine. But the one-week window was with the intention to boost 1-week sales in desperate hopes of beating 25. Currently unregulated under current (streaming) rules. Again, am I mad? No. I'm not being taken advantage of, you are. The thing is that they were never told they were receiving four 'copies' when ordering. Their purchases were made with an intention to buy a bundle consisting of single CD copy and "never-before-seen photos from Taylor Swift's archive that you can't get anywhere else". See for yourself here. It's not a package deal. A package deal would imply that Taylor was giving a copy with each purchased ticket, like other tour bundles. Instead, she is using fear of not getting a ticket as a tactic to get fans to buy the album up to 13 times to redeem codes in hopes of moving up in a supposed digital line. It's shady.
