Re: Beats By Dre

[QUOTE=sbando;1151252]Well, SOMEONE (Apple) paid three billions for that^, obviously considering it a good deal. Dre, who only provided his name and the reputation he used to have 20 years ago, earned 600 millions. What justifies that :)? Why pay that money :)?

Disney bought Pixar (run by Jobs) for 6,7, if I remember correctly.[/QUOTE]Nope, definitely don't listen to me :lol:

Nothing funny about wearing headphones at a Gym. Someone splitting their shorts, or falling of a treadmill, that's funny.

What's the betting Mrs Orange bought them for him, so she wouldn't have to listen to all that crap he keeps asking his online buddy's to recommend.

You keep repeating that as if it's something that you are insecure about with yourself mate. Don't project that shit at me :lol: I'm quite comfortable with the fact that I'm here to share and learn.

I don't ask need to anyone for recommendations, I don't think I have repeated anything either. Oranges, strange fruit.

Yes, then wait 4 centuries to make it profitable. Waiting for Google and maybe Soundcloud too, at present all streaming services pay shit to artists. With 3 billions you create 50 new sites and pay artists their due

Fat chance anyone will pay the artists , in this case song writers, their due. :(

Decent headphones that are way overpriced because a celebrity's name on it.

Re: Beats By Dre

[QUOTE=go0gle;1151164]I've never heard how any of their headphones sound, but they do employ a very good marketing team. I think they simply took the athlete-product association started by Nike and co. while back and applied to their product..it still works like a charm apparently.[/QUOTE]

I should correct myself.. Edward Bernays introduced that shit back in the 1920-30s by making famous movie stars smoke tobacco
