Random media commentary

Many of the reviews state that you can find better or at the same for a lower price and that you are paying for name brand.

 

Oh yeah I agree just worth way more than ten bucks though

 

He doesn't have enough mindless followers to sustain that crowd up there with him. Like l just said to TDK...if the comment viewpoints are an indication...this won't fly

 

I hope you are right. I may be bias. We will see.

 

Creflo made $69 million in one year...tax exempt.
Had a judge in Evander Holyfield's dovorce trial plead for him to reveal his finances... Creffie said.."nopey. Contempt of court my Ass for all l care"

Again, seriously, how is the Govt letting.these religious orgs get away with it.. but dog us laypeople. It's obscene.

Nothing infuriates me as much as this

I have family currently on those ridiculous transplant lists, so when someone gets an organ and literally pisses their life away....ugh

 

Utter waste. In so many ways.
He got real lucky they approved him. Normally very strict. Think of the next person he got it over them...hope they got a heart and didn't die...

Chocolatecream4U would be upset seeing this. He is an organ recipient and he treats his body like a temple after it. He is forever grateful for the sacrifice made (he has posted here about it.)

 

Yeah it's a special thing when you luck up and get an organ you very much need

It's a new lease on life

One step forward, two steps backwards

 

So just finished reading this fantastic opine on Tidal.... He nailed it, IMO...

Excerpt....But no, that’s not Tidal. A group of people with a combined wealth of over $2.7bn want to make themselves even richer, with no mention of the artists who struggle to make ends meet – that sounds more like it. No mention of their less successful comrades. So you can imagine where the focus of Tidal is going to be, and where its allegiances will lie.
"This is for the people, by the people" said Beyoncé. What she really means it's for these super-rich artists by these super rich artists, and we can pay the extra price.

You mean the rich are out to get richer while the poor remain poor?

Unheard of

 

Hehe....

Guys like Kanye and Jay Z aren’t fussed about the evils of capitalism. This is a simple act of self-preservation. If they really want to make something that is better than Spotify, then they can do it. Good luck to them. But to do it under the guise of some community project, with a higher moral purpose? No thanks.
To quote Alicia Keys in her opening gambit, “We believe Nietzsche couldn’t have been more right when he said ‘without music, life would be a mistake’.” That might be true, but I couldn’t be more right when I say that without Tidal life will be just fine, thanks.

 

It's not even the attempt at getting richer as much as they are fucking lazy as all hell and their egos are so massive to believe people will just want to pay for Tidal over using Spotify for free. They offer nothing else, they truly believe they are so wonderful people are just going to give them money just because.
They use to produce inspiring uplifting music that made you think (I'm looking at you Kanye and Jay) now they're just money hungry for the sake of having money. It makes me want to purposely seek out the artist who aren't messing with them and support them.

 

False inflation?

Aspiro stock, (Aspiro own Tidal) ...jumps over 900%

You have to wonder does money make you crazy or money and fame. Smh

 

I'm willing to be its pure speculation based on subscribers who are using a free trial and they're betting on the fame of the other participants to brand this a success. Its usually a bunch of out of touch people who know little about the space and the consumers. It's hard enough to get people to buy music but to buy it at double the price of the leading competitor just because Jay-z said so? Doubt it

 

I tried spotify for free...but the sound quality was garbage so I tried their trial. It's like 10 bucks a month after the trial period ends...but I don't think I'll be paying for that when I can just look up youtube vids with the same quality for free

 

They're shutting that shit down I hear.

 

Lmao

All good things must come to an end!

Seriously tho times are tough and people need to be able to eat porterhouse instead of pig guts

Line my pockets America!

 

Couldn't agree with you more here.

I am all for paying artists for their work but if l pay you for your music, then l want that product permantly. If you want to stream it to me, then charge a reasonable price, damn.. Also, does this mean they will lower their outrageously-priced concert tickets? No way.

l also dislike monopolies, and like the article stated, they are self promoting and pushing other artists out. So Alicia can miss us with her global 'harmony'(pun intended)
The color of money is all they see.
