The exaggeration. I’m alright with tour bundles. It’s a strategy and isn’t fraudulent. What’s a fraud is to have your album almost free just to get big debut numbers. At least tour bundles are much more expensive than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lein Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I don't get why people are so mad with bundles, none buy albums anymore, itunes will get shutdown soon and stores are stopping selling physicals copies. I think they should just tell how many of those copies are bundles and from streaming. A cheap $40-50 ticket >>> a $10 album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe Billboard ever allowed them in the first place. I support the bundles because using them helps sell acts' more actual albums, in what is otherwise now the most desolate of deserts. I cannot access UK Mix, but I assume the >350 k albums is the best opening, and overall week so far in 2019? If I have missed a better one-week opening/selling album, for 2019 (December 2018-now) please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iHype. Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Bundles just aren't indicative of current music popularity no matter what. Their album prob would've did similar to Zayn's album in first-week without bundles (150K~, maybeeee 200K), since Sucker performed pretty similar to PILLOWTALK. Kylie Jenner could bundle an album with her makeup line and she'd sell 'millions' and have the biggest album of the year. That at its root shows just how messy the bundle system is. I bet something that messy will have to happen for Billboard to just finally realize the complete BS bundling is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadnews Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 (edited) I doubt billboard will do anything other than adding redeem to merchandise bundle. the thing is label/artist want bundle to get bigger sales, secure #1, brag numbers. Billboard needs to please them, also they need chart hype/buzz for clicks. it's super naive to anyone think people would buy those albums with that expensive tickets. nope. lol lots of people, avg people go to concert for artist name and classics. they don't care about new music that much. there's reason billboard made this current redeem system from previous "pay extra $15, get new album" feature. people didn't care. numbers don't lie not to mention more than 50% don't even bother to redeem and get free album. the ratio is up little bit, but it was estimated only 25% redeem it. lol Edited June 17, 2019 by sadnews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
