John Bigboote Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 INTERESTING... and infuriating! George would NEVER approve. They want filmakers/animators to drop whatever they are doing and slam out a video in the next month... for FIVE GRAND???? That's $1,000 per week, for a team of filmakers, actors, grips editors etc to plan, shoot, edit and produce... a music video for one of the BEATLES? Oh, and if you make 2nd,3rd, 4th place your payment is a box set of the record... which has been out for over 40 years. On the day I find that Apple(the new evil conglomerate phonemaker- not the old hippy record producers of the Beatles) placed a U2 album on my phone while I slept (how did they get in the HOUSE?) Now I have to do tutorials and download the dreaded Quicktime Pro erasing itunes software to delete it... I'm already low on disc space on my phone AND my C: drive... how dare Apple help themselves to it? And- U2 does NOT need any more money... Bono hangs with the Pope and admires his art collection and asks 'where did you get all this great art?' or better yet- DOES NOT DARE ASK... now he goes and LOWERS the value of ALL MUSIC for his fellow musicians- most of whom are being RIPPED OFF by APPLE!!!! The more I think about all this... the more I type in CAPITALS... and my keyboard can't take the pounding. It is a sad day for artists. Quote
John Bigboote Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 I wonder how much U2 paid an artist/photographer/CGI/retoucher etc to do the artwork on their album? Looks like a big ZERO Quote
John Bigboote Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 Check your iphone music... if there is a U2 album that appeared mysteriously and you don't want it... click this link: https://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/offerOptOut Quote
nemyax Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 The best way to opt out: don't buy anything Apple. Quote
John Bigboote Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 The best way to opt out: don't buy anything Apple. If ONLY twere that easy... SMART people would avoid Apple products... just buy their STOCK! They are poised to take over the world, Pinky! That new ApplePay feature may just cinch it for them. Quote
nemyax Posted September 16, 2014 Posted September 16, 2014 ApplePay Pfff. The Japanese have been apple-paying for a decade if not longer. Quote
