Music News: Madonna to offer new album for free with concert ticket - Page 5

Sinister

with those ticket prices she better give those ppl going the cd...along with a dvd, a t-shirt, a poster, a bobble head, a button and more

This is honestly a great idea. I mean the fans would essentially be paying for it, it's basically included in the ticket prices!
Madonna starting new ish like always !! Yaaas

This means MILLIONS will get to hear her new album

the difference is that Madonna doesn't care about chart positions as she does about tour tickets and this is the proof. Gaga on the other hand wanted DESPERATELY to have a number one album so that is why the 99cents deal with amazon was made. Big difference,

OOP.

I'm sick of people complaining about ticket prices. Seriously... Move on, nobody's forcing you tu buy one. She's MADONNA. It's worth every penny.

And btw, she sold over 3.5 million tickets with S&S.

Agree she's Madonna she's allowed to price her tickets however he wants! She actually puts on epic shows!

Jowever For some crazy reason Britney's tickets are way higher than madonnas. I mean Britney is an icon and all but Madonna is a legend!

Britney honestly overpriced her shiz.. I mean 1,000 Dollers really Brit! Your my fav and all but dam!

Yeah but it doesn't get counted toward charts positions, and people who otherwise could have bought it will no longer buy it as they will get it with their tix

LMAO I love the way she announced this after the major pre-order sale last weekend. I bet a lot of those sales came from fans who were already planning on attending her tour. iTunes is probably taking a smaller cut on the sales of MDNA than with other albums too.

Madonna and Interscope making money hand over fist.

Why wouldn't Madonna care about album sales? Interscope sure does--it's their job. At any rate, the Amazon deal was done by Amazon to promote their cloud music program, not a desperate attempt by Gaga to get a 1 album. Amazon was trying to make itself a viable competitor against iTunes.

Still, this is a nice thing Madonna and her team are doing, and hopefully more artists follow suit.

I don't know if you knew this, but Madonna is officially a "touring artist". She signed a 120 million contract to do so. She doesnt need to release another album in her life. She could just tour with her old ****. But she doesn't want to.

She has never cared for charts, sales, or even reviews. Stop confusing royalty with desperate wannabes.

Most fans are buying more than one copy anyway.

She should have announced this after first week sales though. Some may not bother and save that money for an extra shirt at the concert.

Very smart!

These package deal works great. Here in sweden, a Black Metal (!!) band included a single with a rock magazine, the single went gold (which few singles do today), the album went on to sell massive and they won a grammy

Free? I doubt it. Thats why the tickets are so expensive.

Actually, they're so expensive because she's idk... The queen of pop, and she puts on an amazing show. Her tickets have always been expensive. She's just throwing in her album for the fans.

It's not as if someone is buying a ticket to the tour to get the album. Sit.

What I meant was the price of the album has most likely been added to the ticket price, meaning the album isn't free. Sit

On UK Ticketmaster the album is an optional extra - you add it to the cost of your ticket. We don't get them free!

Agreed.
