Adele's '25' Album Won't Stream Anywhere Upon Release
Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal: None of 'em are getting 25.
Tomorrow, Adele's new album, her first in four years, will only be available for purchase. The New York Times cites "three people with direct knowledge of the plans for the release." There's also word that Adele was "personally involved with the decision."
Meanwhile, Billboard's sources say Columbia Records is shipping 3.6 million physical copies in the U.S. alone. "The last album to ship more than that," the mag writes, "would have been *NSYNC's No Strings Attached, which shipped 4.2 million units back in 2000."
