What damage is there to be done? Leaks don't hurt music sells.

Do you really think someone who has no intention at the moment of buying the album is going to say "wow, if it doesn't leak I am going to go and buy it when it will be even easier to get a download link" ?

Leaks do even worse than damage music sales.  They damage a career.  They get the music out there before the planned promo for release day.  This has an effect on how people feel about the music.  If music is released with a big splash with all the happiness and hype surrounding it, people will be listening the music in a positive mood.  People are human, and perceptions of things are effected by external factors.  If music is leaked, like ARTPOP was, haters (and many critics, journalists, and reviewers are stans of other artists and hate Gaga) have their chance to get a negative feeling about the album out to the public before it is even released.  A person that was told something is bad is more likely to have a pre-conceived notion that it is bad.   The ARTPOP era got off to a messy start for this reason.  If the release of ARTPOP had gone off as originally planned, the entire era might have slayed.  Leaks also give the public the impression that Gaga has no control over her work, that she does sloppy work, that she doesn't know what she's doing.

In this case, it was a big mistake for Joanne to go on sale early in some countries.  Perhaps some heads will roll on her marketing team.

All of you horrible desperate people wanting him to leak it. Think of Gaga, not yourselves!

Well, in order for us to think about her, we need to hear her music :neyde:

And it was going to leak anyway :neyde:

Indie albums always leak :neyde:

It's not that deep. It's out in like a couple of days :laughga:

Well, nobody's horrible, people are just people.  But, yeah, it would be best if it wasn't leaked.  Evidence from the past show that Gaga is personally against leaks, and has even been upset by them.

You're right.  This case is not that deep.  The album was already sold in some places.

The human mind is deep, tho.  Each person is influenced by every thing he or she has seen, heard, and read their entire lives.  My father was a jazz musician who was seriously into classical music.  So it not surprising that my favorite genres are jazz and classical.  No music is good or bad, it's just what a particular person likes.  We all think we are the great objective judges of what is good or bad, but in truth it is our past influences that often guide our opinions.

As far as the ARTPOP analogy, Gaga was so upset about the leak, she rush released the album.  So the rush release didn't coincide with the big splash release events which were put in place way in advance.   This got the whole era off to a messy start.  Gaga got the blame, Gaga looked bad, and this could have even effected people's perception of the music.

Already download Diamond Heart, A-YO, John Wayne, Dancin' In Circles, Sinner's Prayer, Come To Mama, and Angel Down, and I'm in need of Joanne, Hey Girl, Grigio Girl, and Just Another Day, and I swear my mom will buy me a copy :)
