question

Should the physical CD be for sale a week after digital?

Most leaks now happen because of physical CD's being shipped to stores too early and markets putting them up early. Dangerous Woman, Glory and Joanne have been victims of that. ANTi and Lemonade had their physical CD released after the digital. Which prevented such leak to happen.

I honestly think that now, you CAN wait a week for the physical CD. You have other options to listen to the Album (buy the digital, stream it), you don't need to CD at the same time. Although it's a great feeling to hold the CD in your hands the day the Album comes out. 

What are your thoughts?

No, because if the physical CD would be 1 week after, I would download it illegaly until I got the physical, so that would be the same.. I don't care about leaks and deep inside Gaga doesn't either as long as it isn't like 2weeks or 1 month early..

I agree, but on the other hand, it's funny to see major Sony releases doing this, like you can see what company really cares about the money over everything.

I'm getting the cd as soon as I can. Cd's should be top priority still. You get the feel of excitement more as a fan. To stop the problem those who leak and listen to leaks should face time in jail.

This would be the wrong way to deal with it. You need to directly punish the leakers severely and find a way to discourage people from listening to the leaks.

Let's be honest they're ALL running after money

Yeah it's the best solution. You can't exactly go for those who do leak or listen because it's too time consuming and doesn't change anything. Delay the physical until after the digital and then those who want the physical have that opportunity still.

Totally agree!!!! So many masterpieces have lost sales because of that. I think it's the only solution. Physical copy lovers (including me) can wait a week, it's not so difficult

Yes, it will be good idea. With digital comes first, labels can control the file protection better. Less people come in contact with it. And it is more seamless, as it can be released globally in the same day.

or just be tougher with the retailers. I mean, how hard is it to not putting them out for sale too soon?

Lose control. Let go and fall. Do you get the satisfaction?
