In reply to Brent Christopher.

Think about it from a karma / longetivity standpoing. If an artist puts out crap music (and gets away with selling the ish) it will bite them in the @zz come album sales and future single sales time. Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Madonna (in her prime), Celine (in her prime), Whitney (in her prime) etc would NEVER put out garbage like that and use gimmicks to sell it. Taylor is taking advantage of the fact that the new generation of music listeners do not know anything about quality music but forgetting about the fact the new generation of music listeners do not really spend a lot of cash on music like old-school music consumers did. In todays world you have to appease new and old in order to make huge profits.
