majormajormajor Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 (edited) If they migrate to Eventim's platform, it would probably spell an end to auto refresh / page monitors and all that jazz. Edited April 3 by majormajormajor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noone is forcing Taylor, Bruce etc. into using dynamic pricing so it could be refused by credible acts over here? Perhaps I'm being naive...

Point of order, Taylor is very much not using dynamic pricing on her tour. Bruce, however, I'm disappointed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watergirl Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 Any time I have used Eventim it has worked really well. German efficiency I presumed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reality is most bands/artists leave all that stuff to their management. Bruce and Pearl Jam are very disappointing in their use of it, indeed, I think Pearl Jam were the first to take it to mainland Europe.

Probably, but in that case for an artist to step away from it seems like a positive to me. It's definitely not happened on this tour despite headlines incorrectly claiming it.

Neil Posted April 4 Report Share Posted April 4 Someone like swifty can probably get premium money guaranteed without using uncertain dynamic pricing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majormajormajor Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 The way Taylor Swift basically scams her fans out of cash with the way she releases albums and the amount she charged people to watch her film etc etc etc, it would be a surprise to me if she didn't start doing some more extreme dynamic pricing. All's fair in love and capitalism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All's fair in love and capitalism. Nobody is forced to buy an album? She's re-releasing them for a reason (rights related) and if your on about how there's like 5 versions of each one, thats very standard practice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Five versions each with a different bonus track. 20 bucks to watch her film online. Not sure why you defend it, she's absolutely rinsing her fans.

As @gfasaid the albums were re-released to reclaim ownership. I couldn't give two hoots about her, but her fans have a choice and she could charge more for stuff if she chose to 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
