They'll completely switch to pure streaming in the next 2 years. It was high time that Gaga jumped off the digital sales ship, because it's like the TITANIC! So sistrens: start focusing on streaming numbers rather than iTunes top 10's because that's where Gaga's commercial future as a popstar will truly be decided in the next few months.

The Fame Joanne 5,985 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 What will happen to the music I bought on iTunes, once the platform is 100% dead 🤔 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellatrix 34,811 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Apple has already killed iTunes for me without telling me why so it's no loss. When I open iTunes I get "you don't have enough permission" and when I click OK and go to the Store it stops responding. Thank goodness for Spotify. Lose control. Let go and fall. Do you get the satisfaction? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry 26,836 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I really can't see it going completely. I imagine they'll just have AM as their focus rather than iTunes. It just makes no sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not profitable for them. And Apple is only driven by profit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
