That's the cheap part of the variants. It's one thing to do a regular + deluxe version + different variants (make it vinyls colors or cover pictures) where you can just choose one (or multiples, idc what people spend their money on). And to add to that you can also see how even if those regulars she's smart enough to do it so you have to buy multiple copies to complete something (1989 TV having each version a number on the back so you could form 1989) or Midnights having 1/4 of a clock in each version, so you had to purchase all four to complete the clock 'cause as a fan, of course you don't want to miss that. clock it!!! and then making them available for only 24 hours and people have the nerve to say "nobody is forced to buy anything!!" pleaseeeee mother, what must i do? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Well it's different under these super specific conditions" and then eventually Gaga or someone you look up to ends up doing the thing you criticized others for and the bar for what's acceptable shifts. The variants replaced another cheap practice that Gaga, among many artists, heavily used last album cycle, which was merch bundles. name one instance where gaga has done exactly what taylor has done, quickly mother, what must i do? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the increasing radio AI should also be considered! We still have 32 hrs+ left of tracking What are you thoughts on where we stand now? (And thanks for this fantastic breakdown!)

The post I just linked from Psyduck broke it down way better than I could have. As of two days ago, they estimate that we needed 11.25 sales. Yesterday we got 9300. So if that's all correct, we need less than 2k today. I just bought four more in Amazon (we it seems you can be more than one.) (Edit: I copied the wrong post. Oops. But you get it.)
