Good read: Samsung the big winner in Jay-Z partnership

as long as it doesnt Count in on his first week sales

Galaxy S4 cost -650$ Retail

An album cost- $10

Jayz got $20 million to sign on...Samsung will make their money back in no time

 

[Rohiggidy]

Jay-Z is getting paid off Kanye, J.Cole and Wale's album..and his album is already platinum. And Beyonce is in his bed. He WON in life.

Whats funny is that I'll probably never use a samsung phone so...

Apple wins because they don't HAVE to do this shyt.

Coming from a hardcore apple Stan apple is losing hardbody because they let Samsung take huge markets hate with this galaxy shyt..

Keeping the same phone design for 2 years, taking 6 YEARS to be avail on all major carriers and not offering big screen sizes are a few examples as to why the general public lost its blind loyalty to the iPhone. Apple let them in the race.

does this mean that jay-z's album has already gone platinum without even being released?

for now....trust, they can't keep pushing the same wack ass device and expect to get new customers...i got the 5 and I'm tired of the phone. Only reason I haven't left is because I'm not trying to lose my unlimited plan but I'm seriously considering saying fukk it because nothing about the phone has really changed

I think when you own your publishing and and you sell a million with out even having to press those units up or give a cent to iTunes or best buy, you don't have a spare fukk to give about a fist week sale.

That's the whole point, he's not even relying on sales to make money from music and that's what everyone has been tryna figure out since napster came out

It means the current standards of what makes an album a commercial success are null and void in the case... He's going to net as much profit from this album as he did when hard knock life sold 5 mil.

Soundscan is not going to count it, but the focus is making money off the music. And that "I scanned a mill" thinking, that shyt applies to the old days

I didn't even adress what you give a fukk about, I adressed what matters in the music BUSINESS and that's making money. And I'm not "mistaken" about that.
