Plus, people who are really into music these days usually have extremely specific tastes, so everybody listens to different artists and nobody sells enough copies of anything to hit the charts.

In 2000, *NSYNC's No Strings Attached debuted at #1 on Billboard with one-week sales of over 2.4 million. In 2011, Amos Lee's Mission Bell went to #1 on Billboard selling only 40,000, or 0.1% of *NSYNC's total. THE MUSIC INDUSTRY

gently caress the music industry. maybe if they actually gave the artist a fair cut of sales I would give a poo poo but as it stands that whole 'taking food out of artists' mouths' thing is so absurd that it is insulting. I loving know you give them pennies per every $20 album sold. I loving know their money comes from shows/endorsements/merchandising, all of which benefits from wide distribution of the actual music (which piracy helps happen). gently caress 'em. They failed to adapt their business model to a changing market and instead tried to lawsuit away their problems.

when the RIAA says piracy takes food out of artists' mouths they mean just mean their "artists" because piracy opens you up to all kinds of new music the RIAA isn't promoting, doesn't have a big stake in and doesn't want you to buy

it's hard to say who was the least cool in some kind of monster, a movie where the absolute coolest person in the room at all times is kirk hammett. and then the big gnarly bass player guy who shows up later.

ghlbtsk posted:https://www.google.com/#q=lowest+selling+%231+record Okay so it's actually a record low, not a typical modern #1 - that's pretty much what I wanted to know. For all you know the month after the NSYNC album was nearly that low. I want to know what the sales figure are week-by-week, not just the extremes.

Here's an interesting graph. People are still gobbling up music, they're just paying almost nothing for it.
