This is most likely just a desperate grab by FB. Such a bad financial year with the stock debacle. They know they have let artists freely gain fan bases on facebook for years now so they are able to control it with an iron fist. A good temporary budget increase for them is to take that iron fist and grab all the artists by the balls and squeeze them for all they're worth. Which when I put it that way it sounds an awful lot like blackmail... ahem anyway... Will it get them a burst of money? Sure. Will it hurt facebook in the long run? Probably. Does it really matter? Only time will tell.
