I think Ye’s music is a hot commodity and that he's also able to make persuasive pleas (when they’re coherent)
It could be different from that
I’m just saying if you announce a second week streaming drop, you eliminate a vast majority of the people who actually might buy the album from his website, because what’s one more week for a guy who notoriously delays albums anyway?
Ah, so it won’t count at all haha
A million illegally downloaded my truth over the drums

The easy work around would be to let the purchased album be able to download to whatever music app we have on our phones
Bc nobody has the capacity to listen to something that’s not on a streaming app anymore.
I support this no streaming thing
I bought v1
I will buy the next 2 iterations
It eventually came out on CD, but it originally released digitally on their website where you could pay whatever you wanted for it. That was before streaming though.
If Kanye really wants to make a big impact, he should use this model. Even if 1% of his followers purchased it all for $1 each, that would be $200K right there

the problem is 90% of the world won't support it lol

only a nerd would support this
I dont support this no streaming thing

Not my problem
And hardly Kanye’s problem as it seems he wants to move forward with this

Put the album on iTunes but not on AM

This is the future.
Direct-to-consumer album purchases that import straight into your streaming library
bruh f*** james blake stupid white ass
lmaoooo
Put the album on iTunes but not on AM
Then iTunes is still getting a cut
the problem is 90% of the world won't support it lol
The thing is that that’s how it used to be
y'all really crying about this
If he puts it for sale on the iTunes Store
When you buy it
It goes into your Apple Music library
If you buy it from his website you just put it in your iTunes app and it iCloud library sync will add it to your Apple Music library ?
Are you all 75 years old?
Put the album on iTunes but not on AM
iTunes
Might as well put it on Limewire
I don't think piracy will impact that much
even a minimal amount of orders will make a GIGANTIC difference between direct sales and streamings
let's say we have 4000 customers that will stream the album once
You will earn from Spotify around 100-200$ depending on how many tracks there are + if they stream all of them without skipping
You will earn around double with Apple Music, given the same circumstances
(And all this is calculated without knowing what's the cut those streaming services will take from the final earnings)
Now, if those 4000 customers will buy the album from Ye directly, it will generate an income of 20.000$
I know, once you buy the album you won't generate more income for him, but that doesn't mean they can't put the album on streaming later
Me buying the album directly probably holds more value than steaming it over time
