While the price is undoubtedly an issue, I'm concerned this wasn't higher up in the article
Brownlee says the money from the app is split 50/50 with artists
HALF? Like I get that people are going to sign up to get exposure, but that is a hefty premium for doing very. very little work.
Yeah, worse than Google/Apple app store's 30/70 split which is already a robbery.
Had a quick look at his iPhone review, stumbled upon this. What bullshit.
Another pointless article nobody will read.
Maybe you could just not use it? It seems like everyone is getting mad over something that doesn't need to involve them. I persoanlly wouldn't use this but I respect peoples choice and the free market.
