After seven months of semi-public back-and-forth, a conversation instigated in part by Aussie piracy and Beyonce's surprise release in December of 2013 has resulted in the global recording industry accepting Friday as the release date for new albums.
Success of Beyoncé’s surprise album and piracy prevention are thought to be contributing factors in the business reportedly moving towards a unified worldwide streetdate of Friday
Blame it on Beyoncé: according to reliable sources, courtesy of Billboard, the music industry's controlling powers are now considering moving global album release dates to Fridays in the wake of the "Drunk in Love" singer's successful December surprise release.
If anything this post proves that Beyonce had a larger impact. Australia doing it "forever" didn't seem to have sparked much change until "Self Titled" was released. I do believe that there are several factors, but it is not coincidental that the conversations started last year, just months after her album was released.

Self titled its impact would all those people that studied music and the industry in a school and not a internet forum be wrong ?
