Harry 26,836 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I don't know the ins and outs of this act that they're trying to stop so my opinion isn't 100% well informed, but I think very few people here do actually know what they're talking about regarding this so I guess I'll add my two cents anyway. I support the artists and their right to do this. It's their product, their art, and they have a right to choose how it is used. I don't give a damn how rich they are. Particularly if popular channels use copyrighted material and get good money from posting to YouTube while the artist whose music they are using sees nothing from that. HOWEVER it does indeed seem ridiculous and extreme to me to completely ban the use of it because things like reaction videos will be impossible... I think a middle ground needs to be found and agreed upon. I don't know if there's a better way for artists to get paid, but neither the current situation nor the artist's proposal seem good to me. Anyway I support Gaga's decision to do this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big artists can make anywhere from $40 million [£28 million] for one cycle of two years' touring. Giant artists make upwards of $100 million. Make music -- then tour. It's just the way it is today." She was kinda dumb for saying this imo so if she's changed her mind then I only see it as a positive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nn. This was before she knew that a +150M tour is impossible for her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewful2929 786 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 You know what is sad? The president of the United States doesn't even make as much as them. I love music but who in their right mind thinks they are entitled to those amounts of money just because they sing songs? I just don't get it? The world is so backwards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swan Heart 7,382 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I doubt Gaga even cares for this. I don't see her sitting somewhere and dealing with these stuff herself , it's probably her label's decision. Slow down yall They say it's the last song. They don't know us, you see. It's only the last song if we let it be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackTheTripper 866 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I am sure sooner or later somobody will make post how she is grown woman and she can do whatewer she wants. But so am i grown man, and so can I decide who i want to support .... And when person who created her whole persona and carrer telling all the outsoder to be proud of their indentity, accept their self, **** the money and be liberated from society expectations, shallow lifstlyle, money and etc---and now is money hungry celebrity promoting politicans, quoting bible and spending millions on plastic surgery and fancy houses... and taking legal battles to become even more rich She and other clebrities dont ow us anytng, but neither do we own them anything.... and at the end public made you and gave you everything that you got, all the millions, all the sold out shows... IT WAS THE PEOPLE..... and when those people one day realise that everything was a lie, and strategy to earn bucks, than we can stop with the bullshit that they are connected to their audienece and are being sincere So much talking and bullshit, but when it comes to action, all falls flat Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eighteen 5,428 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 i'm guessing she's doing this with the younger artists in mind who need money by concentrating streams to VEVO uploads or the original and earning the money that way. i hope that there would be an opt out option though if they pass any legislation so that i can still use gaga songs in videos i make ;_; i mean for bigger artists who are millionaires, how much money do you ****ing need, god.

What happen to "Music Not The Bling". I guess that money-hungry white devil was a terrible influence on her. Ugh. You're always angry with whatever she does. You're pressed in every thread.

She literally saved my life with Born This Way. Also, mon francais est merde. Je parle seulement le anglais et le espagnol I know. My french is terrible.
