YouTube streams will count towards Album sales

Is this strictly for official accounts? What about random accounts that have music on them? Are music videos included?

I'm thinking official accounts and Vevo accounts (since some lables don't fuck with Vevo a la WMG). Videos are likely included, don't quote me though, it's purely speculation on my end.

So how long before we have to pay for youtube?

I said this before - aallll these websites yall take for granted yall take for granted arent doing this shit to be free they have families too and are trying to make money off it. YouTube is slowly working to make yall pay for their service, they not gonna change that now. Enjoy it while it lasts..... Even news sites and the IC youre gonna have to pay for content. This is why Puffy and Jay are trying to build up social media platforms with Revolt and Tidal. They aint stupid.

Niggas wont realize until its too late and since jay and diddy at the forefront, niggas will hate it and keep supporting spotify and anything else not named tidal.

So if you cant how many times youtube played the song....why not count how many times the radio plays it across the country. Isnt that the same thing

But But back when I was coming up you had to walk to the store to buy music on 8-tracks for them to count
