Believe me, they will start selling her album once they realize what they are missing out on. They did it with channel ORANGE and even The Re-Up.

Then I don't understand the logic.
If you've caved before with those two albums because of demand why even think of not selling Beyonce's popular as hell album?

Yet she managed to sell the same amount as Kelly's weight in 3 days via iTunes with a $15.99 album. I think I might have to disagree.

Also this.

If it became a trend to do things this way, physical retailers would suffer quite a lot.

well artists/ labels have been suffering from leakage since the turn of the digital age, maybe it's time retailers presented their buttcheeks. its their employees that leak music anyways

I don't understand either. It's beyond stupid.

They should have looked at the digital sales, looked at how it has outsold the majority of 2013 releases in less than a week, and realized that people are willing to pay $15.99 for this album. They can make a profit from this album smh.

Their going to lose out on MILLIONS of $$$

Didn't know people even went to Target to cop albums; I use BestBuy.

I don't think they're doing it to make a point to Beyonce, it's for other artists. Beyonce is obviously better off with this business plan and doesn't need Target, but other artists might, and this decision to not sell the album helps deter other artists from doing this.

even if this were the case, its Parkwood n Columbia's to worry about not Target's

On the contrary it is Targets problem since they sell only physical CD. If physical sales may be affected then they lose potential sales and might not make that much.

Parkwood and Columia have nothing to worry about since by what I said they'll still be selling digital copies.

This. Other artist will be thinking long and hard before trying the Yoncé release route.
