Dua Lipa - Studio 2054 (with Kylie, Miley & more)

I hope these livestreams continue! Significantly cheaper than an actual concert, less of a time commitment, and makes it easy to see artists that aren't popular where you live

Obviously that's a huge success in and of itself if true, but interesting that it hasn't made any impact on iTunes. I wonder if it has on streaming?

Oh I think they deffo will, now it's being proved that people WILL pay for live streams on-demand.

I could see bespoke livestream performances like this replacing some CONCERT RECORDINGS eventually.
Easier for everybody involved, a much more controlled environment, ability to RESHOOT with ease, essentially a way to print cash if successful...

@lolly In the UK, Levitating, her current hit, has less daily streams than a week ago. In the US, it has more, but its growing right now anyway.

Presumably, most of the people who would pay for this are already buying/streaming the music anyway.

 

[lolly]

Yes, I've seen some GRIPING journalists bemoaning THE LIVE MUSIC EXPERIENCE, but for pop acts I think this is probably better.

 

[lolly]

And if Dua did pull those numbers, hopefully we'll see decent budgets as well.

I guess post-corona, there are still going to be people AT HOME on a Friday night, and as @RJN says - not everybody even LIVES near where people tour.

I think people will still watch live streams in a post-corona world, and they could become really quite a lucrative new strand of revenue for artists and the music industry.
I guess the past-equivalent was hoping ITV or the BBC would toss somebody a random TV special, but now there's infrastructure emerging for these sorts of events you really don't need a broadcaster onboard any more.

If it really sold 5 million tickets at a tenner each and cost at max a couple of million to produce the that is some SERIOUS profit.

I wouldn't be surprised if Netflix are watching with interest.

unflattering? where?



bitch is serving in pic 3!

the album outside of the singles already had strong streaming numbers and I expect that to continue even if individual songs didn't get big boosts. I think the next material she drops will do well too, especially if it's that twigs collab that sounded stupid good.

I mean, Queen. Fever is doing so impressively.

I do not believe 5m tickets were sold though maybe that's TOTAL VIEWS and it's like 1m tickets. and even that seems quite unbelievable to me. It was heavily marketed I guess, and cheap.
