    I don’t understand why artists don’t just do like a 24 hour open pre-order and then press exactly how many orders they get.

    That way the artist makes more money and every fan has an entire day to buy one if they want to without having to worry about it selling out

    exactly !! i never understood the concept of a limited releases it's just so dumb

    Yes, but they were hyper-limited to 500 and never got repressed

    oh yeah just looked it up and saw that price

    yeah the way frank did it for Black Friday blonde was perfect

    What’s weird is he didn’t do that for the normal blonde release

    I really don’t get what the artists get out of making stuff extremely limited like this.

    They’re hurting themselves by reducing the amount of money they can potentially make and also screwing over fans who aren’t able to get a copy because resellers buy them in bulk and flip them for egregious amounts

    Yeah Cohered and Cambria just dropped a record with 2500 copies that sold out in one minute making them like 75K but they could have easily sold out 3 times that and made a lot more cash.

    It's really strange to me that as hyped as vinyl is. Maybe there is a limit as far as pressing goes for smaller artists?

    I would assume budgetary reasons being the biggest factor but an open, timed pre-order would literally negate that problem because artists would know exactly how many copies had to be pressed

    Pressing takes forever, from my recollection of Lil Ugly Mane's 2021 album

    Seems like there's a limited amount of individuals who do it, and larger artists take a large chunk of those folks's time and resources

    Plants are backed up ostensibly from Covid delays and there is a vinyl renaissaince going on, so more demand

    Better explanation of what I was thinking lol

    I really meant with the vinyl explosion, the big artists are taking up alot of those plants resources, so little dudes just gotta get in where they fit in
