base talk What did you do with your Scooter's versions?

[Revolution]

I destroyed half of my SVs with a hammer and use the other half as a coffee cup rest.

[Rider]

Still using them  

Good for her for re recording but Imma still use the originals

[Lyrica]

Nothing because I pirate all media I consume

[Virgos Groove]

I still use them (except for Fearless).

[bjorn]

If you’ve already purchased it why destroy it? It’s still Taylor’s work, songs, vocals, production etc.

I only respect the TVs.

[Peak Now]

I forgot that they existed.

This. And still some of that money went into Taylor's pockets and helped her to build what she is right now

[Klein]

I don't have physicals of any Stolen Version.

 

As for streaming, I basically create a playlist in which I keep whatever track I prefer between OG and TV, and keep the TV by default if I don't have a preference. 

 

So far I kept nothing from Fearless, WANEGBT/IKYWT/22 from Red and Mean from Speak Now.

[Holy Ground]

I don't stream them but I'm not gonna throw out my physical copies 

 

Also it's a pet peeve of mine whenever a Swiftie calls them Scooter's Versions as if its not the art she spent a countless number of hours creating, like it's still her music just not in a legal sense

[dyktatuob]

[Rep2000]

The only "Scooter's version" is the streaming or purchases right now. I got them when it was not Scoot's.

[Josh]

The "Scooter versions" are miles superior.

[Alldeezy]

I sometimes play original verisons if I have my liked songs on shuffle but as I'm making my monthly hit playlist I am using the TS verisons

[Into The Void]

If an artist recorded it its still their music even if they don't own it. Most of my faves don't legally own their music and I won't not buy or stream because its the labels 

 

Edit: Scooter doesn't even own her masters anymore anyway

Don’t have any physical albums of hers but I still only stream the original versions of the albums. 

[Schami66]

I deleted the OG Fearless and Speak Now, because I really the TVs are better. Her voice improved a lot.

With Red I have both versions, because (Let's be honest) whoever was responsible for the production of the pure pop tracks really ****** up. 

22, I Knew You Were Trouble and Starlight are okay/cute but WANEGBT(Like Ever) is bad

I feel like Fearless (Taylor's Version) is the only one so far to get everything right on all fronts, even though it's not my favourite

 

Fearless has elevated production and vocals and there wasn't any botched songs

 

Red, for me, IKYWT, WANEGBT and 22 weren't re-recorded to their full potential. There is a lot of "fun" little sparks from the original missing

 

Speak now is such an emotional album vocally, that's what is missing the most for me on TV. The original Enchanted is superior, the emotion is severely lacking on Last Kiss - RIP shakey breath 

 

Wildest Dreams and This Love are extremely elevated for me so I'm not that afraid of errors on 1989 TV

 

OT: I don't use the original versions once taylor's versions have been released - even though I would love to stream 22 & Enchanted originals 

[Vespertine]

I listen to them daily 

[Gui Blackout]

I don't know her

[StonedSoulPicnic]

I still listen to my CDs.

[Selegend]

it's nice to have the stolen version physically or bought on itunes so you can listen to it to compare or to remember if u want without giving money no scooter since u wouldn't be streaming it. 

 

But for me, Taylor didn't manage to keep the magic only on the Red singles (all of them, idk what happened -- but it's just the singles) and on Better Than Revenge (and not only because of the lyrics), but despite from that everything Taylor Version is equally good or even better than the original. 

[JungleJuice]

I have her music pirated on some drive but I lost interest in her and don't listen to her anymore

[Bussea]

 I still listen to them the same way I listen to the TV versions. Hell, I still prefer some of the OGs to the TVs
