    So the Weeknd pushed his album back in a desperate attempt to stack up some more pre-orders.

    He stocked his site with some ugly merch bundles and a $4.99 digital album with two exclusive tracks. Thank Kanye for that btw, such a scummy thing to do. But very much expected from someone like that.

    1. Kanye did not invent that, Taylor did.

    2. The merch was supposed to be sold at the Rose Bowl performance, which was canceled due to the fires.

    3. The merch is absolutely terrible but you are a fool if you think the album was pushed back for that and not due to the fires

    When has Taylor offered new songs exclusively to digital copies of an album?

    He was not selling bundles with the album included at some show before the album drops lol, cut it out.

    She released numerous digital-only versions of TTPD that had live songs or phone memos attached to them.

    I didn’t say he was, I mean the merch drop in general was. The digital deluxe would’ve came regardless

    Live songs of songs that are on the album

    Phone memos of songs that are on the album

    Those aren't new songs. Exclusive live versions of songs and bts content doesn't take away from the album listening experience.

    Notice how I said "merch bundles".

    No way you’re excusing it because they’re “on the album”.

    They were still versions of songs that were exclusive to a digital purchase on her website, it’s the same concept

    They're literally doing nothing because she's her and also white

    Absolutely not.

    Cutting songs off your album and re-selling the whole album as a digital exclusive is deplorable.

    I don't need to hear a live version of a song that I can stream freely. They aren't the same whatsoever.

    It does not matter what you need. It is the same concept. And thousands of her fans bought the digital exclusives solely because they were digital exclusives.

    I need to make 1 album purchase to listen to TTPD in its entirety

    I need to make 2 album purchases to listen to HUT in its entirety

    Hope I was able to dumb it down enough for ya.

    2* as of right now.

    We'll see how many more digital albums come about when we get closer to the release date.

    Did Taylor release those exclusives to boost sales yes or no?

    Also artists have been doing store-based exclusive songs for decades, Taylor included, wtf are you talking about

    No s***. And i've said before that those digital exclusives were corny.

    And just saw the edit. You are genuinely ed for comparing these digital exclusives to deluxe albums. Stans are ridiculous lol.

    It’s the same f***ing s***

    Bonus songs you can only get at one retailer

    You’re just racist and won’t call out a white woman for doing the same s*** everyone else is doing

    You're talking about a physical deluxe with a Target sticker on it you dumb f***. Do you think those songs are erased from existence after they're removed from the shelves?

    Racism is when you post a music chart

    And when you discuss digital exclusives
