>>92738217They are personal projects because many and I mean MANY know that vtuber music don't do well, that's why we ahve some exceptions but they can be counted with 1 hand and we have over 60 taletns, making music is expensive, covers too and not even FUCKING VSHOJO pays for the covers their girls make
>If the girls shoulder ALL the risk, why do they only get scraps for profit?Because the songs aren't making profit anon, not even for the talent if a song costs 40k $ and the song only recieves 1k, what do you think is the average they'll get? 500k? Marine has talked about this several times, the money is in the concerts and merch, never a song released on fucking youtube and this ain't nijisanji, they are not getting scraps.
>It's a net negative for the vast majority of them (even those that hit 1m views+ on songs) because Cover simply GRABS the lion's share of the profits and gives nothing back.Source on that please? i'm sure you're not making shit up, else I explained what happens above
>The girls are expected to just sing out of "passion" while it literally COSTS them money, in other words the employee is literally paying the employer, completely psychotic system that's hidden under a bunch of "you're an idol guuuurl you gotta sing!!" feelgood bullshit.No, the talent is paying the artist, the lyricist, the studio, the mixer, ect. Then she has to make sure some words don't match with other songs because they can get copyrighted by youtube and any fucking studio that owns a phrase (yes this happened)
Irys just recently talked about how expensive english covers were
>''wait.. aren't there 2 more zero's than usual in the price??''And that money wasn't going to cover but for whatever studio owns the song they wanted to cover
