>>75365057It's okay to admit that your original analogy is retarded, no need to act all high and call it stupid yet you can't explain why and decided to make a different (actually better) analogy instead.
Anyway, that's a better analogy, but
1. I need to work everytime to get money from farming, while Kobo only needs to work once and will get the profit of the MV for the rest of her holo life.
2. You need to spend considerably more to make an MV, which is why "a loan" from label still worth it
The scale is massively different here. Your analogy looks right on the surface only because it's only 5$, you're spending little to get little. Nobody needs an agency for something like that, that's why it doesn't exist.
Also, you forgot to consider something
>You need money to make a musicIf say, Kobo barely get any profit from her song, then she has to use money from her own wallet for her next song. She might not even have enough money yet to make the song so she needs to wait (this is exactly what happen to here before she joined a label). Meanwhile, with UMJ even if it barely has any profit for both of them, she can still make a song since UMJ will still make her a song as long as she's still with UMJ. She doesn't need to collect the budget first.
>We don't know if she got a profitWe do, she said it. No reasons to assume she's lying
>if the costs that umj had were bigger than what she made from the video, she might get money from that specific video but will have to pay more money than she made from it in the future due to the costs of that 1 videoNo??? Wtf is this. If the revenue isn't enough to cover the cost, then UMJ just simply eat the loss. Maybe they will gave her less budget next time. Maybe they will not extend her contract. But they won't asked her to pay for the loss. Where the fuck do you get this from??
Let's assume UMJ took 75% of profit
Scenario 1
>UMJ spends 1M yen>The songs generate 2M yen>UMJ takes 1.5M and gives 500k to KoboKobo spend: 0, receive: 500k (profit)
UMJ profits 500k
Scenario 2
>UMJ spends 1M yen>The song generate 1M yen>UMJ takes 750k and gives 250k to KoboKobo profits 250k, UMJ loss 250k
See? If Kobo doesn't bring enough profit (or even worse, it's a loss) they'll just not extend he contract. It's profit sharing, UMJ is the one that has the copyright, they're the one that selling the song, etc. They're the one that get the initial revenue and then gives cuts to Kobo.
Why the fuck do you think it's Kobo that got the money and need to pay UMJ for the cost? Do you even have any source for your insanely warped perception of reality or are you just so mindbroken you said this retarded shit out of your ass?
