These pieces are then recycled and re-used for production of future discs. With Eco-Mix, every disc looks different from the last. All vinyl packaging is made from FSC® certified recycled paper/boards made 100% from post-consumer waste and recycled pre-consumer fibers. The ink used is raw plant-based and water-based dispersion varnish. In place of shrink-wrap, the sleeves are 100% recycled and re-usable. For shipping, all finished goods are packaged and shipped to depots in up to 93% recycled and 100% recyclable shipping boxes." Sticking to her original point! oh, the swift to the haters who wanna find something to hate.

Billie is half-assing this by making people pick which variant they want. If anything how Coldplay did it would incentivize stans to buy extra copies in hopes of getting a color that they like, unless I'm missing something.

There was absolutely no way of knowing which color you would get and most of the variants were multi colored. If you wanted pink, you could buy 100 copies and not get it. If anyone did that, it would be on them, not coldplay. The secondary market was the only way to pick and choose

mael Posted April 9 Posted April 9 Guess it's only bad when Taylor does it, eco friendly or not. YAWN. The comments with "Swifties!!!" this "Swiftes" that... 2 5

Although I'm not surprised at the lack of reading comprehension when Billie made two points: variants being bad for the environment (she stayed true to her word) and veteran artists still being cornily obsessed with charts and debut positions. An artist that has almost 20 years in the indurty and has released like 20 albums has a lot more pull than Billie who has only released two. I'm surprised she even has the leverage to make the variants eco friendly. But other artists are more concerned with pioneering new exploitative techniques towards their fans. 4

All I see are excuses on Billie's hypocritical ass.... there is no reason to release NINE variants.... did you have the same energy for Beyonce when she scammed her fans out of several songs from the vinyl prints? There is no difference between releasing 9 eco friendly vinyl variants or 4 regular vinyl variant, both are exploitative and harmful to the environment. Looking forward to our next encounter in a different Taylor thread 1 2 5
watermelonshake Posted April 9 Posted April 9 Personally I like having options when it comes to colours. And I really don't see the difference between pressing, for example, 10k copies of an album in five different colours versus 10k copies in one colour. I do really wonder how big of a difference it makes in sales. Like surely the people buying eight copies of the same album are a small minority? Personally I always just choose the one I like most, I don't feel any need to buy multiple copies no matter the gimmick. 1
mirihaii Posted April 9 Posted April 9 Too bad yall are missing the whole point... I hope more artists will join and do the same.... LEAD THEM ALL QUEEN!!! 1 1
drivers license Posted April 9 Posted April 9 hear me out… how about, both points can be true i would have sided with Billie all the way but she did mention artists selling these variants for charts & money & then doing it anyway. it makes her look like a hypocrite. then the buy 3 to get a signed card? girl i'll continue to support her but i can't defend (even if it was Olivia or Lana who said that with the amount of variants they put out, i won't btw) at the same time, eco-friendly products are the way to go if we're going to do it anyway. the jewels and plastic in cd's/cassettes are very awful for the environment (looking at you kpop companies) although let's not act like the cassettes and stuff like that aren't just collectable items. i buy them also, but it's never the preferred music medium for it to be necessary but.. here are the key points some may have missed: - store exclusive vinyls are produced in different locations or factories. if they were gonna make it anyway, why not make it in a fun different colors? no one's forcing anyone to collect all of them if they all have the same contents. - she has nothing much to do with the above store exclusive variants, but her label - they are not producing the exclusive variants with the same amount, so yeah, stop acting like these variants are such a waste compared to the regular black ones - people who collect 3 plus variants are a minority 1
chiliam Posted April 9 Posted April 9 its so funny some of the people in this thread whining about oh you dont understand her point. You are the one who doesnt understand why everyone coming for her. Not because the environment friendly thing but because of this direct quote in that interview Why act holier than thou then you yourself also release 9 variant, also spray some paint on it and then ask fans to buy 3 copies to get a signature. It`s like a non-vegetarian who dont eat red meat try to judge other non-vegetarian for eating red meat. Its comical and If you don`t see the irony in this then you are just dumb lol. Eilish: We live in this day and age where, for some reason, it's very important to some artists to make all sorts of different vinyl and packaging … which ups the sales and ups the numbers and gets them more money and gets them more… ADVERTISEMENT Baird: Well, it counts toward No. 1 albums. Eilish: I can't even express to you how wasteful it is. It is right in front of our faces and people are just getting away with it left and right, and I find it really frustrating as somebody who really goes out of my way to be sustainable and do the best that I can and try to involve everybody in my team in being sustainable — and then it's some of the biggest artists in the world making f–king 40 different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more. It's so wasteful, and it's irritating to me that we're still at a point where you care that much about your numbers and you care that much about making money — and it's all your favorite artists doing that sh-t. 5 1

And doing better means making 9 variants, spray paints, and buy 3 to get a signature. It`s like a non-vegetarian try to raise awareness and calling everyone to be vegetarian. Maybe you should learn how to read and try to understand why everyone calling her out. 3 1

The secondary market was the only way to pick and choose Kpop does it the way you're describing and it 100% incentivizes people to buy multiple copies hoping for the one they want. People buy dozens on copies of Kpop albums because incentives are randomized Edited April 9 by Gaia

newaespa Posted April 9 Posted April 9 7 minutes ago, Gaia said: Swifties still comparing color variants to Taylor versions that have exclusive tracks Apples and oranges IKR! Taylor Swift releasing so many variants are obviously for the money Billie Eilish ONLY released 9 variants, and as long as you purchase 1, you are able to contribute in helping the planet on the other hand, you are only ruining the planet whenever you buy a vinyl from Taylor Swift i just can't wait for may 7 to come, Billie alone is coming to end Global Warming. Greta who? it is Billie Eilish now 8
Feanor Posted April 9 Posted April 9 16 minutes ago, Gaia said: Swifties still comparing color variants to Taylor versions that have exclusive tracks Apples and oranges It's not apples and oranges, because both different colored discs exclusive tracks are just gimmicks to make vinyl variants more unique, something Billie herself explicitly called out: Quote and then it's some of the biggest artists in the world making f–king 40 different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more. Are disc colors now not an aspect of vinyl packages, arguably even the most important aspect of the entire physical product? There is literally no reason whatsoever to offer your album in 8 different colored vinyl variations if the end goal is not money and sales. 1 7

You mean Swifties who feel personally attacked in their home with 5 copies minimum of Taylor's latest albums? keep trying to make this a Swifties vs Billie. When clearly in this thread people from all the fanbases call her out for her hypocrite base on fact and figure. Swifties is the biggest fanbase in general and on ATRL so clearly many of our avatars will show up. 5 2
