>8 bucks a month doesn't buy as much content as it used to. In music it almost buys you every song, ever.

In music it almost buys you every song, ever.
- icelancer 11y agoNot really (plenty of artists opt out) and the big artists that remain bitch about the price. Just like the movie studios complain.
- baddox 11y agoMusic is vastly cheaper to produce than cinema and television.
- justincormack 11y agoPerminute yes. The cost of producing all music ever has probably been higher than all movies ever just because of volume. TV is less clear would be interesting to see the numbers.
- baddox 11y agoI'm not sure why total volume really matters that much. A more relevant metric would be production cost compared to sale price. A music album costs about $15 at the most, and I would imagine that the biggest pop records only cost a few million dollars at the most. A new movie costs around the same, but a few million dollars is very cheap for a movie with a wide release. Of course, I could just be way off on my estimates of producing a major pop music album.
- anoonmoose 11y agoI wish, there's tons of stuff that isn't on any given streaming music service. Spotify has tons of stuff I miss, and I'm sure the rest are similar.
- rhino369 11y agoMusic is like 2 magnitudes less costly than TV and probably three less costly than movies. Spotify charging 10 should show you how much a full movie subscription would cost.
