Just get rid of Itunes. This streaming exclusive sh!t is getting on my nerves. It's like you have to have Apple Music, Itunes, and Tidal to get music. The downside of streaming is you cannot download. This is so stupid. #rant

I agree. I understand that streaming is very lucrative for these companies but artists don't get the full profit of the amount the company is retrieving. It's bad enough royalties get in the way with cds, digital audio files, radio spins etc. It's all so confusing to me. It also doesn't help that Billboard established a rule that streaming is  greatly responsible for a song charting high but in reality touring is the real money spot for artists these days. I did read an article somewhere that basically stated that the death of physical cds is near and that's pretty devastating because there is nothing more special than having a vinyl, cassette or cd of the album. I like to buy the physical copy of any album I love and sync it into my itunes and transfer it into my iphone. Digital files is the same but I prefer physical copies. I never liked streaming my music because it's inconvenient when you're outside and wifi sucks and you don't want to use cellular data on it. It's also worst for people with regular ipods/itouches. I rather have the download on my phone because I know it's there whereas streaming buffers a lot and I don't know it just feels so impersonal.

You can download on Apple Music sis and it's the cheapest option with the biggest library :gaycat:

 


The Itunes library is bigger and has full songs. Oh okay. Like even after I stop subscribing. I still get my albums?

I totally agree. I still like looking at album booklets. The last CDS I bought were ARTPOP and My Everything. I'm a little old school despite me being young I like to pop in my CD. The quality still sounds better even if I plug it in from my phone it feels like

Kinda haha. I know a cutie from Croatia and have a friend from Romania, so in the middle :D

So how does it happen that you don't have it? You can't find it in App Store and stuff? you just can't find it? And not in PC either? o.O But you have iTunes at least?

You are right :cool: And Actually we don't lol

I know it's really messy but this region is not really developped and we are way behind when it comes to technology and other stuff. It literally takes years for something to get here.

For gods sake, we didn't have PayPal until like a few months back :rip:

where are the spotify exclusive albums at. spotify has been at this for so many years and has built a name for itself and these frauds come and try to dethrown ha. disgusted tbh

I think the difference is that anyone can use Spotify no matter what, whereas TIDAL requires a credit card, and Apple Music requires the money to already be on your iTunes account, regarding free trials on either one.

Well not really, I never buy albums (except when Gaga releases lol), I just download music through YouTube, or various other pirate sites and we know there are a lot of sites like that that offer music really fast when it leaks..

So I just buy Gaga's albums when they come out, other stuff I just download illegally or listen through YouTube and other free services..

His last solo mixtape was an iTunes exclusive and it went straight to #1 so
