Arnold. Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 My target had about 10 copies. But it was nothing compared to Barbara and the other competitor. Walmart didn't have anything, just very best playlist of. Target said people mainly bought iTunes. Idk if that was the reasoning or if that's what his conclusion was. Idk, but why put so much money into an album and not ship out a good amount of copies?? This same exact thing happened to blackout. Link to comment

The main reason I still buy them is for the fact they have FLAC QUALITY (studio quality). Not to mention how valuable it is the fact u have something touchable u know This. Cd is always the best quality you can get. Idk why music industry doesn't push that. If they gonna upgrade to iTunes then every album should be made into a visual representation (like how BJ was an LP on iTunes) Link to comment

They went bankrupt. Hence, why they milked FF (her last album with them,) making sure to enlist Billboard to oversee the entire album. That's guaranteed commercial success. That's why every song on the album was a ******* anthem. Literally, there's not one track that I couldn't imagine hearing on the radio. Link to comment

If they gonna upgrade to iTunes then every album should be made into a visual representation (like how BJ was an LP on iTunes) True, if they are paying DVD's to dust, at least make the effort to release pretty LP's on iTunes. The best quality compression we have so far is .m4a , files are big so that's why they probably didn't take "care" of it yet, alltho I don't mind. I just wished for more visual representations like you mentioned for when it comes to digital purchases. Link to comment
Super Mods Puppy Posted August 27, 2016 Super Mods Share Posted August 27, 2016 Do you think this was done on purpose to increase demand? like they continue to just keep sending small amounts so people have to buy right away because they don't know if there will be more or not. Just a theory Link to comment

Code Geass Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 RCA doesn't decide what they ship stores order it ahead of time and they make CDs based on how many stores ordered them the people placing the orders obvs didn't think it'll sell but it did so now they will have to increase their next order...which will come in 1 week which may or may not be too late Link to comment
mwilliams917 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 3 hours ago, Jeanius said: When cd's don't sell, same as books, they have to be returned to the distributors and that costs the publishers money. It cost RCA a lot of money to have BJ sitting on shelves for so long and not being sold, since so many copies of it had to eventually be returned. That's absolutely false. Once a store buys the CD, they own it the inventory. They do not return unsold CDs to the label. That's not how retail works. They'll either put in on clearance to get rid of stock or they'll return it to their company's warehouse. Link to comment
NotEvenHuman Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 same thing happened with blackout i was told, after its release post breakdown her label was stressed that it wouldnt sell well so they didn't ship too many out, it started to become a big album so they ended up shipping more out the next week or two. could be BS though.

Trentals Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Even in Australia, I went to JB Hifi yesterday and had to go searching for it in the A-Z section! They didn't have it on the highlights, recent release, this weeks releases or the chart section. It was hidden away! I'm pissed. Link to comment
Lou M. Taylor Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 You guys saying they need a whole week to get a new stock of copies is very worrying Link to comment

AkiraLe Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Because the delivery service in the US is very shitty. I had been in Japan and you ordered one last night and it arrived next morning. RCA better ship tons of CDs nowwwwwww Link to comment
Anti-Hero Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Good news- The Target store I work at is finally going to be receiving some copies Bad news- We're only receiving 2 copies Link to comment
Anti-Hero Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 There's some good news though, yesterday my store literally only sold one copy of Florida Georgia Line's album, but that's because my store is around NYC where country isn't popular. Link to comment
Anti-Hero Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 And sorry for the triple post, but my store only originally received 5 units and sold them all yesterday. Link to comment
