evidently a little young but you'll learn that AMLOR is a turd in the Pink Floyd canon....


Don't feel ashamed because you proposed something that could never happen and didn't realize how crazy it was..don't run away from it..its ok to make mistakes... not everyone realizes the types of places Gilmour plays.. and if AMLOR is your favorite Floyd album you may not even be aware that they are a stadium band and Gilmour usually plays big theaters (and that's downscaling for him)... its ok man.

You keep calling me ignorant, or implying that I am stupid. 

So, what is your problem?

You also attack my music taste. 

You like the horrible (to me) band, Antemasque, enough to make a thread about them, so you should be the last person to judge someone's taste in music

From the rebuttal of Daniel Ek against Taylore Swift pulling her catalog off of Spotify; I only pulled one part out of it that pertains to myself, feel free to discuss any of it:

https://news.spotify.com/se/2014/11/11/2-billion-and-counting/
Quote
Today we have more than 50 million active users of whom 12.5 million are subscribers each paying $120 per year. That?s three times more than the average paying music consumer spent in the past.
I don't pay for (or use) Spotify and must be more than an average paying music consumer. 

Should our music consumption money include merch, ticket purchases, and music purchases (physical and digital)?

I did a quick estimate and the money I spend on merch, music, and shows in a year is an estimated total of $1680 (it probably is a lot higher, I used the estimates of 1 $15 show a week =, $10 for music a week, and $10 for merch a week; numbers are sometimes higher, and sometimes lower - lately I have been trying to limit merch purchases, though I have still picked up some t shirts and posters this year). 

So the average person spends $40 annually, according to that guy; so people who spend $10 a month are the heroes of the music industry? 

So that makes me, and people like me, superheroes of the music industry?

Uh, probably yes, actually. You're nowhere near representative of an "average" music fan. Even by the highly skewed metrics of this community, you're still probably one of the most "supportive" fans.
