tokyodisko 0 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I'm not judging anything by a list where Flo Rida ranks top 5. Beyoncé, Lorde and other big artists aren't in it. KP barely made that list...Most of these artists are crap! GAGA fans are good enough to buy her stuff... this is very good news to me It's saying only her fans like her basically. Beyonce wouldn't have had time to get on the list with her late release vs a year of information. Lorde isn't the type of music that people who pirate a ton of stuff usually listen to, plus she is a new artist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 680 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 The fact that only one female artist is in top 13 proves illegal downloading (especially torrenting) in more popular with males. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaLuna 12,732 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 While I agree that promotion did greatly factor into this, I don't see how you can deny that downloads do not equate to liking or being curious of an artist. No one would download an artist they don't like. It's not as if all of Gaga's fans bought the album either, and if they did then her decay is worse than we thought, because her numbers, while not bad, are not nearly as good as they could be. This is showing people won't even take her music for free. Sad but true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
