As least that's what is said on the Amazon.com MP3 Download site:

http://i.friendfeed.com/73435e9ee541f90de1137721c98d81220a52f7c0

I could imagine the same for itunes too.

I ain't gonna pay them $9 bucks to get Miley's Song! Great Job Hollywood Wreckords! :lol:

I know, it might be discussed on the BTS thread already, but i wanted to have a separate thread to address this issue. And i was kinda expecting this already.

Yeah, I saw this last week. I'm going to download it illegally... sorry, if that makes me sound horrible. I want to buy it for Miley, but I'm not giving my money to JB, because I only want that song.

Me too! But i'll see what happens, it might show up on a Miley album soon :)

I really hate what the record label did, its not a rights issue since they are on the same company, its just "The committee" found that making this song album only will drive more sales of the whole album, but hey! I say you can also make more sales just on the song alone!

Aside from Making Hannah Montana in HD, i will be very vocal about this.

Off-topic: Lovin the Friendfeed Signature, it displayed the image alongside my comment. But please, don't be alarmed by the size of the picture if it exceeds forum specs, it will change as time goes by. Thanks.

It is just a cheap (i don't mean money-cheap, i just mean cheap) way for them to get more people to buy the album. nothing wrong with getting it illegally IMO. The way i look at it, if you aren't going to get it legally no matter what, there is no difference if you get it illegally, since they weren't going to get the money anyway.

Note: I'm not promoting illegal activity of course *wink*

Just Disney cashing in on the EVERYONE again to try and sell a JB album.

Just like so many here said JBs are crap and they arent selling, so they have to use the ONLY thing Disney has that DOES sell.

I guess at the JB tour they will have JB T Shirts with pics of JB wearing Miley Tshirts.

anyways torrents.... unsafe... if i want to find anything i just ask google. type the right thing and it will find it eventually.

or you could ask Manuel... O_o (HINT_for_searching_Google)

06-13-2009, 10:18 AM

Well I hope that you can buy it without having to buy the whole album through iTunes.

I know that for the HM TM soundtrack Crazier was Album Only in the US but it wasn't in the European iTunes stores. So maybe at least the ones of us who live in Europe will be lucky.

I wouldn't like it that much to buy the whole JB album I'm not going to listen to anyway just for that one Miley song either but if that's the only way to get it I guess I'll have to.

I actually know this website, were you can download the album, takes about 100mb or so, and then you can just chuck away the JB songs, lol.

Oh my goodness, i came back to see how to download "stuff", not why we are force-fed JB! Anyways.

well not suck, but be poorer atleast. But i can't get any software that can download torrents to work with my linux ubuntu OS.

There is, its called "transmission" and it should be installed as part of the Distro. if you need more control, i can't help you with that.

And let me tell you that because of this, people wanted to Dl not in itunes (where they really wanted it) but in other sources and this thread proves it, Great job Hollywood Wreckords! :lol:

I see that as a rights issue here in the US so i could understand the reason why it cannot be "unbundled".

But lets compare shall we?

Lets say you want the song "On the Line" but you are not too fond of Demi so you wanted to just get that song on Amazon.com MP3. Guess what? you can!

It's: "Jonas Brothers Featuring Miley Cyrus" I got the CD already, and obviously, Kevin does some instruments. Maybe Joe does some vocals, I'm not sure. But they all wrote it as well, so it should be credited to all of them.

well like from what i remember, on their second cd 'jonas brothers' nick sang alot. and on 'a little bit longer' joe sang alot. so i think (my opinion) that they like trade on and off each album. who knows:P

actuallly putting it album only might be an indication that it will be a single. they're suppressing downloads. so either they just want everyone to buy the entire album to get the one song or they're suppressing downloads so that when it is released as a single it will fly up the charts

06-16-2009, 04:34 AM

i dont know much about the jb but hasnt there been other songs where nick went solo or joe went solo? its still labeled as the jonas brothers, not nick or just joe.

it sorta doesnt make sense at all to say for it to be labeled as just nick feat. miley. what about other bands that only have one singer? its not the one singers name feat the rest of the band. the jb is a band, doesnt really matter whos doing the singing. they are a collective group. hell, nick or joe can write a song all by themselves and sing it all by themselves but it should still be labeled as the jonas brothers unless they actually went professionally solo. the logic of only one brother singing in the band and should solely be credited in the title doesnt make sense at all. its as if you guys are assuming that every song a band does has to have more than one singer for it to be credited to the whole band.

its expected to sell 300K, 200k less then their last album but thats also esxpected to drop as the week goes on. last year the prediction was off by 200K, they better hope thats not the case this year.

i hope before the storm is a single

Oo, that's, not so good. That kind of sucks. Whatever personal feelings there may be, they do work hard on their music, especially Nick.

I think it is. That's gonna be awesome. I'd love to hear that on the radio. It will probably do really well because it has Miley as well.

flutesinger262

06-18-2009, 04:02 PM

if that predition is off by 200K like last year they're only gonna sell around 100K and that will suck

Miley's name is first for a reason IMO. Things like that will help sell the track
