The Depressed Fanboy

Fanboy. Depressed. What more do you need to know?

During a job interview and they ask what skills you have.

Remember kids, always draw an anti-seabear circle when attacked. 

[the-depressed-fanboy]

I need this. I need this so much.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

I really hope that the Apple music contact expires soon

Doubt it. They're paying her a butt load of money

[the-depressed-fanboy]

Aww, you're leaving the fandom? Well, we'll miss you

Yeah I am. I haven't felt a proper part of it for a while now. This was the last straw.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

I agree, I don't even own any apple products so I can't even way ch it if I was willing to pay

Well Apple Music is on Android (I beta tested it) but it isn't very good.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

I left awhile ago and I've seen a lot of others too

Yeah I have as well. You know if you wanna private message me on here you can :)

[the-depressed-fanboy]

I think you're right about Taylor

Thanks

I think the reason I’m disappointed is because I always have supported Taylor in her business endeavors, but this is different. She’s now asking us not to pay $4 to buy a music video, or even $10, but $10 a MONTH to have the music video. As an artist who as always represented herself as someone who asks extremely little of her fans (i.e.: inviting them to her house, 13 hour meet and greet, never having to pay to meet her) the fact that this music video is “only on Apple Music” upsets me because even though I do HAVE $10 a month to shell out on Apple Music, not everyone does. In addition, the “three month free trial” argument is void now. Most Swifties began their trial on or before December 31 to watch the 1989 World Tour Live. That means their trial ended on March 31. Well, it’s April 6. you can’t tell me that wasn’t planned. I realize it’s probably Apple requiring Taylor through her contract to only release the video there or something like that but it’s not like she blindly signed it… Now Swifties HAVE to buy Apple Music to legally watch the video. I hope Taylor does not continue to release music videos this way, because it’s disappointing and will only result in her music video being illegally uploaded to countless sites in countless ways. Taylor, I love you to the moon and back, but please remember the middle and lower class fans who have to watch what they spend. We love the music video - we only wish it didn’t cost us so much to watch it.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

Plus a lot of people who can afford it (me) won’t use Apple Music because it sucks compared to Google All Access. Taylor lost a Swiftie in me today.

[whenemmafallsinlove]

I mean, don’t leave the fandom because of this - she’s still amazing! It’s just a frustrating situation.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

To be honest, she lost me a long time ago. She isn’t who we used to know. She isn’t the girl who saved my life. Not anymore. It’s time I stepped away before she disappoints me any more.

[whenemmafallsinlove]

Okay, well, you’re entitled to your opinion but I’ll be sticking around ;)

[the-depressed-fanboy]

That's perfectly fine. You're entitled to yours too. I've felt like this ever since 1989 released to be honest. She hasn't been who I loved since then. Something changed IMO

OMG, HE’S HELPING HIM BACK INTO THE OCEAN 

i officially like animals more than people

[anchor-e-d]

AWE!

[ts-1989]

Why promote that you can watch the Live Tour Film on Apple Music, to someone that’s already using Apple Music? They’ll upload it to YouTube sooner or later.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

They're advertising it to make people who don't have Apple Music get it. That's why.

[1989taylorsversion]

Tbh……………….. when people are talking about their financial struggles……..that is NOT the time for people with money to be defending Taylor and Apple Music and saying things about how you can “get the free trial” or “just spend $10″……… that’s rude and insensitive…………

[theloneswiftie]

Omg guys stop complaint about Apple Music you know that the music video will be all over the Internet by the end of the day. She’s obviously in a contract. We are here to support her no matter what, not criticize her choices. She does so much for us and does most of it for FREE (meet and greets, special guests on tour, interacting with us online, etc) that it’s really not our place to complain that it’s on Apple Music. AT LEAST IT EXISTS AT ALL GEEZ.

@taylorswift thanks for the memories, babe

[the-depressed-fanboy]

It’s total crap. Tbh I lost all respect for her as soon as this exclusive apple deal happened because she’s lied about it from the start. She said the only reason she signed with apple is because they pay all their artists? Crap. Not only do other services pay their artists, they pay them more money. Taylor sold us out for the big money Apple paid her. The least she could’ve done is be honest about it.

[theloneswiftie]

@the-depressed-fanboy Then you can leave! She’s got plenty of other swifties to keep her company and NONE of us need your negative energy. 😇

[the-depressed-fanboy]

No, what you need is the common sense not to accept whatever reality distortion field marketing Apple and now Taylor are giving you. You don't need me. You need a reality check. End of story.

FRIENDLY REMINDER APPLE MUSIC HAS TO RIGHTS TO THE TOUR FOOTAGE AND TAYLOR CAN’T JUST “DECIDE” TO PUT IT ON YOUTUBE OR VEVO

These decisions are out of her hands at this point. PLEASE don’t make her feel bad and force her off tumblr again.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT TAYLOR IS THE ONE WHO DECIDED TO GIVE THEM THOSE RIGHTS. DUH. @tarynlovestaylor

[tlovestaylor]

I said “at this point”. Not “A year ago when she sold the rights”

I’m not saying I love that apple music has the rights but I’m saying Taylor can’t change anything and scaring her away from spending time with us isn’t going to help the situation.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

She should've known better at the time. I lost the majority of my respect for her back when she signed the exclusivity deal with apple (and lied about why) and this has finished me off. I'm not trying to scare her away from spending time with us on here. I'm cutting myself off.

[the-depressed-fanboy]

I need a button that lets me unfollow all the Swiftie accounts at once.
