garnite 8 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Though I don't like Taylor, I will defend her on this. I mean it's her job and if there is a way to earn more money in your job, then do it.what if everyone had this philosophy though? the world would be full of singers and footballers and no doctors hehe. just a thought.

MonsterMum 2,532 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Streaming is stupid and causes huge money loss anyway. most people (excluding fans) get bored of songs after listening to it 40-50 times. Yes and how much different is this from buying and album or buying it on iTunes? You don't get tired from listening to songs you bought? Now for the 10 euro I pay monthly I can just move over and not feel **** that I just wasted money on something that wasn't as good as I thought.

Mythos 3,199 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 This just makes me feel like she's only in it for the money. I mean, I guess that's okay, after all it's her job, but I can't really fully respect someone as an artist when they put monetary interest ahead of their work. It's not like she desperately needs the money Spotify "takes" from her. Personally, if I was a successful artist, I'd want as many people as possible to hear my music, the money would be an extra. And it definitely wouldn't be that important if I was swimming on it Who is doing it for free? They are all here for money! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 She's one of if not the most successful artist this year and she's earning half a million from free streams. That poor girl. Praying for her right now, her life is so tough :(This :( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenniferella 2,774 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Why should she? The people behinder her and herself are working her asses of, why should she do this? The bigger benefit for them isn't from album sales, it's from touring. Removing her music on Spotify won't help them achieveing an eventual successful tour "I have been writing LG5 since I was 13" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duella Dvil 10,515 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 awe, poor baby! making more money than a lot of people see in their lifetimes must be so tough, you better remove all your music from access to much of the general public! You are missing the point the Juda v Judas lawsuit It's for a greater good. the point is that it's pulling a naptster and isn't paying the artist and destroying the music industry CAUSING prices to rise CAUSING ultimately a kill on the customer How is any artist supposed to make anything if they are getting paid those figures (smaller artists on spotify) www.instagram.com/theduella666 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i haven't seen any proof Spotify helping them with tours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
COLONiCPRiNXESS 1 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Who is doing it for free? They are all here for money! Not JUST for money though, because music is what they love and they love to perform to thousands of people. That's what it should be anyway. The fact that she can sit there and say "Take my music down from Spotify bc I'm ONLY earning under $500,000 from streams" is ridiculous, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Josh 3 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 At this moment, it's impossible for Spotify to pay more to artists. They barely have a profit. And with simple calculations I think she made more than 500k. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEVDALIZA 1,274 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Who is doing it for free? They are all here for money! A popular portuguese rapper releases all his music for free. He says "I'd rather have 1000 people listening to my music for free than 50 paying for it" operating from another world Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
