This is a free range fair trade spotify, so you can help these starving artists like Madonna and Jay-Z.

How is Apple and Pineapple supposed to have a microbiotic diet from the measely Spotify royalties? Do you want to raise your children on cheap music knowing that Beyonce won't be buying the 2015 Lambo? What kind of message would that send.

Make music for 16-24 year olds and then ask them to pay 10-20 dollars a month.

That's the business plan.

It's easy to make a lot of music when you don't write any of it.

i love how they're all sitting at a boardroom table pretending to understand anything without their writers and producers

I have an interest in lossless audophile feggitry but not at those pricing schemes. Either way I hope this succeeds as it's driving pure white hot rage into the hearts of musical 'purists' and old white people. Simply because of the musicians involved and for being a Spotify competitor.

I can't imagine many of these people think this will catch on, and are probably just scraping some coin off of minimal effort involvement. Who ever is putting up the money is fucking up though.

If this project has a significant Japan focus, it might not be too stupid. The Japanese music market is still heavily into CDs, so if this company can leverage some influence (licensing, subscription plans, etc) they might manage to develop something there.

Revolutionary. Authentic. Honest. Groundbreaking.

As a knowledgable music connoisseur who counts every single kbit and deletes every music file below 1440 kbits this is pretty lifechanging for me. You might not understand this, but right now I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes, Beats by Dre on my ears and a smile on my face. This will change everything: instead just consuming music like apes we will finally be consumed by music itself. The age of booty will die, it will be about attractive ears again - as it should be!

SMH @ people mocking this. You not ready. You sitting at home in front of that Walmart PC listening to compressed MP3 files that sound like when iLoveMakonnen and Rick Ross oil up their bellys and push them against another. Shame on you. You should eat healthy and just like your nutrition you should keep some fucks about what goes inside your ears.

I don't think there's anything wrong with artists not wanting to get milked by streaming sites or their labels. Perhaps having the big artists come out in support of this will help struggling artists, who don't have the clout of a Jay-Z or Rhianna.

That being said, LOL @ marketing it as a social change movement, and the only way a regular plebe can participate is by shelling out cash. Most people are cool with paying for Netflix, and a lot of people pay for Spotify for some reason. It'll be interesting to see how this does over the year, compared to what iTunes is planning and Spotify.

I won't go all crazy making the comparison but it's funny how these people never seem to take stances on actually important or controversial issues that matter to people.

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #22 on:** March 31, 2015, 02:04:42 PM »

This has to be the worst marketing/PR I've ever seen. Holy shit. If your premise is "more money goes to the artist" showcase like young up & comers and explain how this will benefit indies. Don't have fucking millionare assholes talk about how important they are, toast champagne and sign the fucking declaration of independance.

Musical artists should really be ignoring the 40 or so years of all of recorded history where they made more money from recording and selling copies of their music than they did from playing it live. Wanna make money? Tour. Stfu about "intellectual property" and recordings.

Honestly the bigger problem is labels. Even if you tour, some of that revenue is going to your label considering that nearly everyone is signed to a 360 deal.

The obvious solution is to cut labels out and go independent. But people would rather get dat 1mil advance and have people book hotels and tour dates for them. Now is truly the best time to go independent. Social media makes it significantly easier to reach people with your music, Soundcloud makes it easy to "go viral" with a good song, etc. Fuck radio, fuck labels, just do your thing and make a good living. And then if you want to sign with a label later you'll have some leverage.

But then you have to do actual work, instead of being provided with writers, editors, choreographers, P.R., etc.

Over the past couple days I've been seeing references to this, which I ignored, but I just now bothered to find out what it is, making use of this thread and Google among other resources. I am in favor of it, I think. Especially I'm really glad to finally see someone prominent come out as pro-Illuminati, which should make it easier for others to find the courage to do likewise and so lift the stigma over time.
