Music streaming services, charges are TOO CHEAP? Agree or disagree?

[Yinny]

Considering I’ve spent thousands on the physicals just for it to be more or less obsolete now, it’s too expensive and labels are greedy

Thought they removed Tru 2 Da Game off Spotify.

It is listed under Master P. Not Tru

No, unfortunately music isn't valuable anymore.

You are a white chick born in 2003, so it makes sense you’d say that. It has never been this easy to make music. The pure technology and accessibility makes your statement a flat out lie.

It has always been easy to make music. All of those garage bands in other genres, basement rappers, beatbox and drumming on the lunchroom tables, church singers, being recorded singing over instrumentals...hell, we used to record music using the audio booth in the library. The problem is how great would the sound quality be, and how difficult it is getting the music out there. If anything, that's the only thing that became easier.

All of that still required at best having a run down studio. Today me and you could make a 15 track album passing back and forth verses on our phones.

FFukk these artists

Nope. $10 per month is just right

Buy merch, concert tickets or digital singles/albums if you want to support them I do all the time.

Needs to reset the market. Way to cheap

I'm about to start buying the physical copies of what streaming doesn't have full albums of, such as The Show sdtk

You just made me flashback to a reason I dislike an ex of mine. I had a 100 CD case and we were listening to them at her place. I got a call from my mom saying her car needed a jump so I left. 2hrs later I come back and I see her nephew and niece was there.

Them lil muthafukkaz sliding my cds across the hardwood floors and she didn't realize it.To this day I remember the exact 5 CDs it was...

1. The Show soundtrack
2. Menace II Society soundtrack
3. Money Talks soundtrack
4. Boomerang
5. Above the Rim

I knew it was over after she said "it's only CDs they didn't mean it". I said... well slide me $80 then? She tried to guilt me... 2wks later I broke up with her.
