eldavojohn's Journal: Artists Rebel Against iTunes Over Album Sales

Artists like the eloquent poet Kid Rock are taking a stand against iTunes as they continue to see album sales fall while their hit singles skyrocket in sales on the popular music distribution application. He will be joining Jay-Z in not putting his latest album up for sale on iTunes. I guess Kid's fans were either sending him a message he didn't want to hear or it's just not fair to give consumers a choice. Either way, the world will mourn the loss of Kid's music on iTunes. </sarcasm>

So...

Why not make an album worth buying? The model as near as I can tell is to make a really good song or two, phone in the rest, and then try to get everyone to buy the crap to get the good one. Putting in the efforts to make all of them good might just be the better strategy, no?
