Amazon loses over $3 million selling Lady Gaga's 'Born This Way' - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Ultra Violence;30234779]She's intelligent enough to know that there's a massive difference in physical copies and digital copies. Therefore, a stuck up whore. Why can't they all be as down to earth as Jessica Simpson?[/QUOTE] you are really bad at posting

[QUOTE=Lazor;30234851]you are really bad at posting[/QUOTE] And yet here you are making posts that have zero relevance to the thread. But it's ok, we're all a little bit of a hypocrite sometimes! It's good to know the best you can do is click a picture for a rebuttal. Cute :3

I bought the album that day because I kind of enjoy her music, and because if you purchased it, they gave you 20gb free storage space on the cloud service instead of 5gb. For 99 cents, that alone makes it worth it.

[QUOTE=thisispain;30234520]uh no the beat isn't stolen at all because there's a new beat in MIA's song all i'm saying is that's the new shit, that took the pop music game forward [/QUOTE] haha what That is a sample of a song with another beat on top of it. I mean it's even more so than Lady Gaga having similarities between other songs.

[QUOTE=Ultra Violence;30234602] And no, Bjork isn't even in the pop genre. [/QUOTE] hell no [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Beu3ZLr-UEA[/media] yep totally not pop, right down to the hummable chorus and the refrain

[QUOTE=usaokay;30235198]Gotta agree with Lady GaGa's comment. Despite her [i]interesting[/i] wardrobe, she knows what's right and wrong.[/QUOTE] Her music is entirely separate from her choice of outfits. Her attire is part of putting on a damn good performance, as a performer. Her music is about her musical talent as an artist. People who focus solely on the fact that she dresses unconventionally are missing the point. I don't mean you specifically, I'm only quoting because you brought up the issue with her clothes.

[QUOTE=Ultra Violence;30234467]Except that's pretty much what dude was saying She's using old beats from the 90s? lol, maybe they sound similar MIA is using the exact beat from a song from the 70s. I am not addressing you, by the way. You've made the least compelling arguments in the entire thread.[/QUOTE] I know that you weren't addressing me, but I've seen the "artist with more effort > artist with less effort type" of statements. If that is not what you've meant, do you think that MIA constantly uses the 70s beats constantly compared to the 90s beats that Gaga uses? Maybe people don't like the constant use of 90s beats?

[QUOTE=PrusseluskenV2;30222924]she actually has talent though[/QUOTE] okay too bad she doesn't use it

Gaga said yesterday that she believed a digital version of 'Born This Way', wasn't worth more than the 99 cents heh u got that right lady gaga

I could care less about her awful music, what annoys me about her are her stupid outfits that he uses in order to be labeled as "unique"...

Best song with lady gaga in it: [hd]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pi7gwX7rjOw[/hd]

[QUOTE=thisispain;30235579]hell no [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Beu3ZLr-UEA[/media] yep totally not pop, right down to the hummable chorus and the refrain[/QUOTE] that's the coolest drummer I've ever seen [editline]4th June 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=kevlar jens;30238804]okay too bad she doesn't use it[/QUOTE] uh yeah she does that's why she's a thousand times richer than you are. you don't have to like her or her music for her to be talented

This is one of the worst comments I've heard in a while. It almost promotes piracy, and degrades independent artists and is even as far reaching as insulting people who distribute their games on Steam. Isn't Lady Gaga like "in touch" with people who are trying to "be themselves" and crap like that? So why insult the indies?

piracy helps independent artists, brodude. the only thing piracy hurts is huge record labels.

[QUOTE=Ultra Violence;30234258] [editline]4th June 2011[/editline] Your problem is Listening to the radio. I'm sorry to hear that.[/QUOTE] Why are you bashing people that listen to the radio? Are people not allowed to have musical tastes?

Lady Gaga might be the only hope pop music has these days. I applaud her, her opinions and her causes.

lady gaga is the only wildly popular pop artist who has any real merit

[QUOTE=Sanius;30240258]piracy helps independent artists, brodude. the only thing piracy hurts is huge record labels.[/QUOTE] Maybe in music, but definitely not independent game developers.

[QUOTE=Downsider;30243056]Maybe in music, but definitely not independent game developers.[/QUOTE] that's what I meant. I should have clarified

My respect for lady gaga has gone up sgnificantly.

I own most of her albums. The only problem I have with her is some of the costumes she wears [img]http://alltimecoloratura.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/lady-gaga-queen-night.jpg[/img] :geno:

[QUOTE=kevlar jens;30238804]okay too bad she doesn't use it[/QUOTE] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM51qOpwcIM[/media] Yeah, sure

[quote]"For MP3s and digital music. It’s invisible. It’s in space. If anything, I applaud a company like Amazon, for equating the value of digital versus the physical copy, and giving the opportunity to everyone to buy music."[/quote] wow, this actually makes sense I've seen some of her earlier work from before she moved into shitty dance pop and she's actually talented, shame she's such an attention whore.

[QUOTE=Generic.Monk;30246589]wow, this actually makes sense I've seen some of her earlier work from before she moved into shitty dance pop and she's actually talented, shame she's such an attention whore.[/QUOTE] She is quite intelligant for a pop star. Unlike most people who tend to talk complete arse just to gain some attention.
