Hello, I pretty much lurk here, I asked this a couple of days ago, so don't know if this was asked or answered yet, but I have a question for Q3, concerning the live DVD. I remember you saying that concert DVD's don't sell well, especially not in the US but will probably sell more overseas.
I remember you saying something about any product sent to stores by RCA have to sell well to set Adam up for his next releases (ie not having a lot of returns), I was just wondering how much can we expect this CD to sell that will be profitable, I don't know what RCA's budget, and expectations are for this project, but don't know if anything within the 20k-100k range will be too high or too low, not knowing how much DVD's typically sell.

Fever on Vevo presents is now at 98,000 views. And WWFM is at 72,000. I know we were discussing that the view count is not necessarily accurate, but I'm gonna just go with these, cuz it means there will be a good market for the DVD, right?

Q3, just had a quick question for you. I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I've been thinking about this since the news that Archuleta's been dropped broke. It's been reported that Archuleta had a 3 album deal and that now he's fulfilled it, he wasn't so much dropped as that the contract wasn't re-upped. From what I read, the assumption has been that Adam has a 5 album deal. Do you have any thoughts on this? I in no way believe that Archuleta and Adam are similar, other than both having been runner ups, but it does make me worry a little that labels have such short memories. I'm surprised that Jordin's getting a 3rd album, though I know she has an international presence. I do not know what is in the 19 Recordings Contract but here is what I know.... 1. The Idols have a recording contract with 19, and 19 licenses them to a record label. Through AI9 Sony (BMG pre-merger) had the exclusive right of first refusal to any 19R Idol. 2. The Idols have a contract with their recording labels. The "license" is a mechanism to filter money to 19. 3. Recording contracts have a term. This is generally set forth as a term of years, generally one year as the initial term and a series of option periods, to be exercised or not in the sole determination by the label. It is believed that the Idol Sony contracts give Sony a 7 year term. This has never been disclosed but Kelly has said she is done after this album. That would be 5 albums. 7 years. (RCA has a reason to be really slow accepting this album because she has said she will leave RCA.) 4. RCA/Jive exercised their options for 3 Archie albums and those commitments are done. That would make it a 3 album deal. (spin, spin, spin is not just for CD's and records, it is how the music business works). 5. As far as I know, Archie is still with 19R and they have no reason to drop anyone. If Archie gets a new deal, they will still get their share. Jordin's last album had a hit single and has now sold over 700K units worldwide. Not a hit is in the US, but prob made money. Why not invest $2 million in another Jordin album? If the have a change to make money, they will do it. Also, the advance will be more modest because it is based on her last albums sales in part. Regarding Adam -- he is not in Archie's position. RCA looks at the future potential to make money. It is about far more than albums sold, that is just one way the labels make money. Adam looks like a good bet to keep generating money for RCA. Plus, he continues to put our FYE product. Look at all the ancillary revenue from just one album. It is possible that Adam has actually generated more profit to RCA than Ke$ha who sold more singles and albums. Q3: Thank you SO MUCH for your response - I really appreciate your taking the time to answer our questions!! You're AMAZING. Full stop.

Aaw, that was cute - thank you for the link . The interviewer is Minttu and the program is a summertime morning tv-show Summeri. They were eating tippaleipä and drinking sima, tasting salmiakki and the word Adam was practising is "kiitos" (thank you). Now I want some sima! (it is made of water, lemon, white sugar and dark sugar, drop of yeast).
