Thoughts on leaking unreleased music?
A recent trend in music has formed where leakers obtain yet-to-be-released singles from popular artists and then organize groupbuys to leak them.
A groupbuy is typically a group on Discord, where the creator sets a goal of around $1000-$2000 for the fans of the artist to raise. Once the fans raise the money, the leaker then releases the song to the public.
While I don’t partake in the groupbuys, I do listen to all of the leaks from all my favorite artists as soon as I see them posted. I enjoy all of the music I’m able to enjoy early as a result of these leaks, but I’ve also noticed it has lead to countless album delays throughout the entire industry.
What are your thoughts on leaked music? Is it wrong of the fans to steal profits from the artist? Or is it -blam!- the music industry?

It’s theft simple as that. Imagine you made furniture for a living. If someone broke into your workshop, stole all your furniture and sold it to the highest bidder on e-bay, that person would rightly be sent to prison. Don’t see why it should be any different just because it’s music.

[quote]A recent trend in music has formed where leakers obtain yet-to-be-released singles from popular artists and then organize groupbuys to leak them.[/quote] That's called [u]theft[/u]. [quote]Is it wrong of the fans to steal profits from the artist? Or is it -blam!- the music industry?[/quote] It's wrong no matter what. No sugar coating the words or trying to rationalize that record companies are 'evil' changes that.

1 返信It's a bummer that people don't think about this from the other side. These artists - even the famous ones - are real people. They work hard on their projects and they're even more excited about creating it than we are about hearing it. Imagine working really hard on something and people just totally disregard your excitement over the release by leaking it, and worse yet, charging for it.

1 返信Sounds like a dick move, but honestly what can we do?! Tell leakers “hey! Stop leaking stuff!” Sounds like a you problem for the artists.
