[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting how her shills show up to bury the fact this was a scam on her fans. Cult leader cooked up a shameless scam to get you saps to re buy her songs and albums you already all owned and feel like you were supporting her. [/quote]

Are you ok? Not owning masters is very much a thing in the industry, which is now changing. Taylor’s music is very personal to her - she writes it all, about her life, and she started when she was 14 or 15. She obviously viewed her masters as important as her many journals. These aren’t songs written by professional songwriters for her to sing. I get why she wanted ownership.

She was never offered outright ownership. She had to make a deal to give future albums in exchange. She was smart to walk away. Kelly Clarkson is the person who told her she should just re-record them.

From there, she was super clear with her fans the whole time. “I’m doing this for me, so I own my music.” Fans chose to engage. It wasn’t a sneaky plot. It was all out there. Some didn’t like the re-records, and still listened to the older ones. Some prefer the re-records. I am a newer fan and I have never paid for a TS album. The re-records did bring new life to old music, which allowed her to do the eras tour, which fans LOVED. She credits that tour, in this week’s announcement, for her financial ability to buy back her masters.

Anyways… I’m excited for her and hope this changes new artist contracts in the future [/quote]

I'm just fine. It's her fans who can't see they've been played like marks. But maybe I'm talking to an AI bot. Who knows anymore.[/quote]
