Providing legal methods of listening may help prevent illegal downloading, but it also can increase social sharing of songs due to the link between Spotify and different social networks. For emerging artist A$AP ROCKY, his album leaked in January but it did nothing to impact his timeline and many thought that it actually provided additional exposure for the artist.Īrmin van Buuren’s camp has responded by making the entire album available for full streaming on Spotify. Recently Kid Cudi’s album ‘Indicud’ leaked and he moved up the release date in order to not miss out on sales. The impact of leaks on album sales is difficult to interpret. From torrent sites to known illegal file lockers like Mediafire, the album could be downloaded almost everywhere.
Even the world’s #1 DJ isn’t immune to album leaks as copies of ‘Intense’ started floating around the internet late Friday afternoon.
