Anderton Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Wow. Everybody who frequents this site should watch this video. At 2X, it takes less than 10 minutes. Anything that's online can be manipulated...like video streaming services too, which promise the world, remove content, end ownership of physical media, and then raise prices.

David Emm Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I think its a matter of demanding lowered expectations until the idea of the artist making even a little extra cash becomes laughable. The last few safe places are those like Bandcamp, who (the last time I checked) take a simple percentage after X number of sales. Otherwise, if you are an independent, its quite reasonable to see Spotify and similar such "services" as being out to rape you with knives. Nature points out the folly of Man, Godzilla. Its an interesting sociological curve. An astounding new idea appears, has a shakedown cruise that secures its appeal and then an equity fund group or conglomerate turns it into toxic waste. I find it magical that I can listen to music or buy a Memorymoog with a few clicks. I just wish I could get that corporate, crank-fueled Doberman's teeth out of my arse. C'mon, that's the cheek where my wallet is! Sorry to be so curmudgeonly. Do I look inflamed to you? 🤨 Quote An evangelist came to town who was so good, even Huck Finn was saved until Tuesday. ~ "Tom Sawyer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
