No so for example if the vinyl cover was $10. When you add it to the cart, you get offered a $3.50 discount. With that $3.50 discount you are offered the digital album which is $3.49. $3.49 is the minimum amount of money to charge for an album to be eligible to chart on billboard. So basically you are still paying the same amount of money but getting a free album 

How is it different from pricing the cover at $6.50 and offering the album at $3.50?

Beautiful. 

I don't think from a Chartster POV SOPHIE work is what's best for Chromatica. However I do think she should be added in on the re release if those songs exist, as tribute. I know a lot of stans wanted those songs.

(However, I didn't know if they were just saying that because it was the only thing they knew meaning more Chromatica content).

I feel like ANTI has benefited enormously of being Rihanna's most recent project for 5 years already

This isn't flamebait but it's her only good album too. The rest of her albums had a lot of filler and bad tracks. The singles were amazing but the album as a whole were terrible. ANTI was an amazing album though and her first good album

Her recurrents are her strength in general tbh. Gaga can't be good at everything. Let's look at it like that.

Because then people would buy a digital copy of the album for no extra cost? That's how bundles worked. You'd get it for free basically and fanbases would redeem it to help their favs on the chart

I would love if Gaga released it to commemorate SOPHIE but I doubt she would. Twitter people would be offended and say she's profiting off someones death or something like that

But why would I fork out the extra $3.50 when I can just get the cover for $6.50

Yes I agree, only the iconic Loud comes close as a solid body of work

yes but to phrase it in a different way, I feel like a big reason why her recurrents are so strong are because they don't need to compete with new material

so the discount should be on condition of purchasing the album.

Buy the album at $3.50 and get $3.50 store credit to spend on merch. The album now becomes free to the customer.

If it was implemented as: buy the cover and you get to buy the album for $3.50, the album is not free to the customer.
