The numbers shouldnt be surprising. This is pretty much what was expected from a Jay-Z album. Sure 1 million copies were purchased by Samsung (brilliant move for both parties), however.....he is still going to move a lot more units...also not a surprise.

What I am curious about, is who will be next to make an attempt at putting their album out in a similar fashion.

Im sure the management copies for other big artists are putting out feelers to some of these big companies to see if they can get a big payday for similar treatment. Who will be the next one?

Eminem :ufdup:

One thing that's consistent is jay has the most stupid fans. People are on twitter like "I got the album but I'm gonna buy it to support jay z." Jay is worth like 380mil, if anything you should save your $13 and maybe one day you can be worth something.

Samsung wanted to get people talking about its phone in some context other than as an alternative to the iPhone. That commercial during the NBA finals was GENIUS! Hit the sweet spot jackpot: a materialistic demographic of consumers who rush to be the first in their clique to enjoy new music (and sometimes new phones?).

Doesn't matter if it's a 1.50 a month:why:

Ur whole thing is that u hate putting money into artists hands by purchasing their products.

Well buying an album from and artist is the same as subscribing to netflix and hbo. U're still buying media.

thats not my point you dumb f$%k.. If they had some full hd streaming sh!t for FREE i would not have netflix. When i had free direct i didn't buy PPV to support Roy Jones because i had it for free already. You're missing the point. You can get CD QUALITY for FREE so why BUY the album? Anyway i'm done. I got better things to to do right now. :smugdraper:

I don't know how old you are. But I'm 24 and haven't even seen or heard one someone mention this album . Young people don't want to hear no fukking Jay z.

You acting like you being 24 means you know what the kids and teens are listening to. You're about half way into your 30s you're young but not THAT young.
