We know why this trend has been so strong now right? The vast majority of consumers don't pay or pay very little for music now. The latest stats show that the vast majority of consumers stream their music via services like Spotify, Amazon and Pandora. So under these circumstances it makes complete sense why artists like Dylan are bailing out now and getting as much money as they can for their music catalogs.

I remember back in the day when all the Teen females in school just loved and raved about him and his music in including my steady date. I hate Dylan and the horse he rode in on.

Terms were not disclosed, but the amount is said to be between $300 million and $400 million. Stevie Nicks sold 80% of her publishing catalog to Primary Wave last week for a reported $100 million, demonstrating just how robust the market has become.


Wow!

But I am glad Dylan is worth more than an illiterate ball fondler (sports guys, get your mind out of the gutter winkngrin ).

Never was a big fan of HIM, lots of good music though.

Look for me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or Tic Toc...or anywhere you may frequent, besides SimHq, on the Global Scam Net. Aka, the internet.
I am not there, never have been or ever will be, but the fruitless search may be more gratifying then the "content" you might otherwise be exposed to.
