What's the point of making music videos nowadays? The top songs get maybe 50 million views on youtube and a video costs 500k to make, so you are losing money with making them. Factor in most songs will maybe get 10 million views so you're losing lots of money on them at that point.
>>130403446Music videos are just ads for the songs and albums anon. You can set a mood and expectation of what the album will be like with it.
>>130403472yes but people just use streaming services now so you're not really advertising anything. In the old days you got your video played on MTV and it would make people buy the album.
>>130403534They still get paid from streaming anon. Not as much but still a decent amount.
>>130403545My point is streaming is where all your money is going to come from nowadays so why waste money on a video then? People just skip youtube and go listen on streaming.
>>130403671Uh, music is on YouTube and YouTube Music exists? And it pays something?
What is “streaming” if YouTube isn’t counted?

>>130403687you can just upload the audio instead of paying 500K for a video and not making the money back.
>>130403751obviously people do make videos for cheap if they want but most high level artists will spend a lot for a video.
