3 new digital versions of “The Tortured Poets Department”

love her but this is too much

I get buying a physical variant because it has "collector" value. But re-purchasing an entire DIGITAL album for one new song on it? Oh excuse me, one VOICE MEMO not even a song?

Taylor lost all credibility of releasing variants for the fans. This is clearly a charts grab, and a petty one too.

I wonder where the HMHAS isolated vocals, reverb, and sped up albums will land 

The Tortured Poets Department is available in nine CD, six vinyl, and four cassette variants. Pretty much with each having a different track list. It’s utter bull$hit. At least Billie dropped the same album completely remixed in a cohesive matter.

Here's hoping she releases another. I wanted 4 new digital versions, but I'll settle for 3, and just purchase a couple more vinyls to make sure she keeps her hard-won record.

Edit: I know the Scottish gov has asked me nicely to think of the sea life and stop buying multiple vinyls , but c'mon, this is Taylor Swift we're talking about!!

Spoiler

I genuinely don't understand the level of crazy you have to be to keep buying all these different versions of the same album. What a useless waste of money. Remember when it just used to be standard and deluxe

Tortured Poets Society (Taylor sneezes version) coming soon. 

[Ziggy 11,548]

Girl…hang it up…the album wasn’t well-liked to start. This is just getting sad. I thought this era would see her get **** on a little bc overexposure but she’s REALLY bringing it on herself lmao I thought it would just be regular ol’ misogyny

[Teletubby 145,862]

She restocked signed CD.
who signs these photos while she is in Europe?
and why is CD with a signature 2 times more expensive than standard CD?

 

[FFXIV WhiteMage 5,896]

Will she really block Billie?

 

I find both their recently released songs to be boring though  
 

I hope Sabrina gains traction, her new releases are all bops!

I love how you Swifties pretend that that’s the same thing as Taylor releasing slightly different track lists to scam her fans into buying the same shitty album 100 times lmao 

Well we actually get new content, therefore actually incentivizing the purchase. Why would I buy a sped up album when I can literally just change the speed on YouTube

All those poor digital servers and the wasted electricity, what will the sea turtles think?

i feel like billboard should make a rule that albums can only have standard, deluxe, and maybe a "re-release" version count towards charting. 3 versions max! not 30, omg

What new content? How many times have you listened to the Cassandra voice memo recording?

If she was releasing actual new content instead of alternative versions of live vocals of songs on the standard, I'd probably feel differently. I truly do not know how or why anyone would purchase these.

Why would you buy a live vocal version when you can find that live vocal version of Paris performance on YouTube?
