Slayer 9,227 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Is anyone else surprised that Gaga hasn't been more vocal about music streaming services?The reason I ask is that Taylor Swift has recently spoken about Apple Music doing a 3-month free trial for new users, and how she disagrees with the ethics of it. On the other hand, Gaga, who has been an advocate for supporting "the artist", has just signed up with Apple Music. It just strikes me as odd, after everything she has said during her career, especially during the ARTPOP campaign, that she supports free streaming. In this world, money and quality go hand in hand... why is she so willing to give her music away for free? http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a654133/taylor-swift-explains-why-1989-wont-be-on-shocking-disappointing-apple-music.html#~pgfFp3oZ35DumPhttp://www.inquisitr.com/2174620/apple-music-gains-lady-gaga-but-possibly-loses-adele/ I love judas SO MUCH but I canʹt look like a copycat of JLO!!!!

Tokyo Rose 1,475 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I think that's her practical personality, she doesn't want to be seen as greedy for more money when she already has so much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond Heart 4,400 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Because she makes enough money already i think. I think she doesnt care about streaming because she makes her money primarily elsewhere and as along as she can keep making music. Im glad she isnt saying much about it tbh.

GagaMyBlood95 9,915 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Her music is already on Spotify and once again, after those three months, she will be paid by Apple too. I don't see the problem really.I would do the same thing if I was her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PartySick 159,824 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Well she believes first and foremost that she's been given a great opportunity to create music and share it with all her little Monsters and the rest of the world. That's her main priority. The paper that comes with it is just the icing on the cake 🌸Flourishing and vibrant🌼 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartySick 159,824 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Side note: Remember when ARTPOP leaked? Her reaction wasn't "NO, DON'T LISTEN TO IT, BUY IT WHEN IT COMES OUT!" it was "That's ok, Monsters. Enjoy the music!"True artist right there. 🌸Flourishing and vibrant🌼 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Adrenaline 1,518 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 nnnnnnnnnn she said during BTW that she would sell her album for free if she can .... I think that she is on the other side of where Taylor is standing in this matter It's much more fun to have hizophrenia... u never get lonely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woolfsmck 2,763 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Live shows and appearances are the main income for artists. Free recorded music would only help get people to buy tickets. So I think that this part of the music business is revenue for the label or production people.- like a cat in a sil, I observe life, moving and still. My words give a clue,look inside to see whats true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasonGaga 11 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Because Gaga always thinks first in the fans and then in the Artist, because with out the fans there are no artistsand Apple will pay to the artists after the first 3 months. Think this as a free promo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
