A low price would be crucial for the play button to really take off and become something bigger, badder than an interesting artistic experiment.
$5 for a fully autonomous album anyone?
- tdrgabi 15y agoIt's an interesting experiment. But aren't we already spoiled with mp3 players that can play gigs of music? Having to carry tens of "badges" and swap them every time you want to change the album will become a nuisance, when the novelty wears out.
- sp332 15y agoI think it could be worth more than $5, if the music is composed with this concept in mind. I agree that listening to a pop album this way would not be worth very much. But maybe a symphony would make more sense. Something ambient would be worth about as much either way. If you can compose music that has "in-jokes" based on something you can guarantee the listener has heard earlier in the "album", that would be very useful from a composer's point of view.
- helipad 15y agoI wouldn't expect people to buy these in their thousands in shops. They're more about: 1) Sharing - giving them to other fans who will listen and pass them on. 2) Signifying - showing who you are listening to.
