Plenty of reason for an album delay.
They fucked up and sent Kakao M the designs late. They fucked up and said 1000 instead of 10000. Saying the distributor determines the amount of album printed is fucking moronic because the cost of printing the album falls onto BBC. What is stopping Kakao M from going the opposite direction and saying they expected high volume of sales and printed 100k copies? BBC eats the cost? Of course. Because that is not how businesses work.
>no, when you contract a distributor to release and sell your product the distributor is responsible for meeting demands of consumers.
No you fucking moron. That is not how distributors work. You are supposed to specific how much you want to print and not let the distributors decide how much THEY want to print.

can't even preorder most versions of it anymore and other places have their releases in march so either it was massively underprinted or something else. not sure why they would do that intentionally as it only upsets the vendors and customers.

not sure how it works but i think a distributor takes a cut of the sales profit (something like 25%) instead of charging for the pressing outright:
> The distributor takes a cut of income from each unit so The distributor takes a cut of income from each unit sold and then pays the label the remaining balance.

literally read the pictures included, it literally states the distributor predicted far less sales than what was preordered
distributors are the ones in charge of making those predictions, the fact that a group sold 50k in their previous comeback and a major distributor like kakao m doesn't use that as the baseline for preorders is ridiculous
Ryder Reyes

Joshua Cox

Alexander Gutierrez
twitter.com
if it's like games it's not actually up to the publisher. they can give a ballaprk estimate but the final decision is on the distributor so if they make too many copies and they don't sell like they expected them too vendors start trying to offload copies because they're only taking up space since no one wants them.

the distributor rather than bbc is the party that deals with stores and sells the album to them so they migth actually be the ones who judge the size of the pressing
still weird they'd get it so wrong though

Nobody is going to read it anyway so I'm going to unleash my thought.
I'm so fucking tired of Bighit treating BTS like dirt when they have so much potential. With proper vocal training and more artistic freedom they would be unironically great. But Bighit focuses only on making cash, they're going to overwork them until military enlistment and then drop them for TXT. And I honestly don't understand why they renewed their contracts, it's a big mystery why would they do that with almost disbanding last year.
Joseph Davis
>the fact that a group sold 50k in their previous comeback and a major distributor like kakao m doesn't use that as the baseline for preorders is ridiculous

Shouldn't vendors relay the amount of pre-orders they get to the distributors so they can receive the shipment on Day 1 to fulfil the pre-orders?
That alone should be enough for Kakao M to print way more than they did. Something is fishy here

There is 0 chance, absolutely fucking 0 chance that BBC didn't tell them how much to print or give them a ballpark. No one who is sane thinks that BBC just handed them the album and said "Lol, just print whatever man".

Jose Foster
No you see, the distributor needs to know the projection of every group they get orders from. It's not up to the group's parent company to handle that, clearly the distributor needs to have deep understanding of every single artist in the world.

what is kakao's statement exactly? did they say they didn't print enough because they didn't think there would be enough demand?
because if not then you have no argument for them being in charge of sales projection
Hunter Bailey
Are they? Cause I don't think so. BTS has signed contracts with multiple brands, and their commercials drop randomly, they're recording all the time, but the stiff is released a long time after the recording.
