XF ain't ESC....that said I have no history of itunes and melodi so it could be another 1D...should I trade out for a profit?

You only have to listen for 30 seconds for a stream to be registered

Streaming is very much a younger thing

Some songs are streamed multiple times by the same person

I awaiting you proving me wrong Bails, in a heartbeat

Why do you ignore the multi voting free app? As for the heartbeat check my top 10 predictions from last year

What evidence do you have that the app favours Frans?

By:

George Bailey When: 02 Mar 16 21:15

oh dear we were talking itunes....ok you win

By:

George Bailey When: 02 Mar 16 21:16

Frans will appeal more to the yoof imo hence the app....if Spotify are older then he has even wider support

App users older on average than Spotify imo. Everybody downloads the app but the young listen to most music.

By:

bearcub When: 02 Mar 16 21:20

Spotify users are more likely to be younger (the majority are 29 and under), single individuals who live in urban areas,
and probably largely due to their age and limited income they seem to be more price sensitive. Active listeners are
also more likely to be on social media sites and they say their friends on social media have some influence over the music
they listen to. Spotify listeners are also more likely to keep up with the latest music trends and events.

Worth noting that in 2013 MF (not 2014) Yohio got by far the most public votes at 356,080. 2nd most was 259,101. But after the judges votes were added he came 2nd, ie lost.

By:

George Bailey When: 02 Mar 16 21:21

We know the yoof won't pay to vote but if its free......be interesting if he doesn't win the PV given he's so far ahead...the foreign juries the unknown quantity

By:

George Bailey When: 02 Mar 16 21:22

Are there any itune/spotify records from previous years?

By:

bearcub When: 02 Mar 16 21:26

yes

By:

ah like that is it....ok

By:

Frans will perform in slot 10 in the final.

By:

Henry VIII When: 06 Mar 16 10:21

This year MF will NOT be inviting a UK jury to take part. It was unanimously agreed that the UK was a useless waste of space.

Frans also top on iTunes and YT still.

By:

Henry VIII When: 08 Mar 16 19:48

Also No.1 on the Sverigetopplistan.

Even with all that I still find him a bit of an unknown quantity.

By:

Corbyguy When: 08 Mar 16 20:04

Oikotimes was right about Margaret for Poland so could they be right about their latest story "Sweden 2016: ‘If I were sorry’ to be disqualified?"

Looks like a sly publicity case to me. The songs are nowhere near similar enough for a plagiarism case.

By:

George Bailey When: 09 Mar 16 13:57

Traded out at a lower than current price for a free bet...not sure I like the new cautious George Bailey...interesting test of itunes given he's still top and the others have slipped to 5th and lower (I think)

Not a good sign

In other news, Melodifestivalen favorite Frans was being a total dick to the media last night at the MelFest party.

By:

Henry VIII When: 10 Mar 16 20:48

He came across a little cocky here but not "total dick" that that guy was referring too:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoWGLSLgRRA

He may well be a bit of a brat in reality, but his confidence is a good thing for his performance.

By:

SUNSHINE HEAD When: 10 Mar 16 21:06

Over confidence bordering on cocky is not a good thing in ESC

Sweden LPM 3.7. What price if

Frans doesn’t get overwhelming jury love in MF?
Doesn’t even win MF?
Sweden get drawn in the first half? (Host country picks their draw out of a hat).
Gets drawn early on in the first half?

By:

five leaves left When: 11 Mar 16 16:49

What price if the juries love it and it draws 2nd half?

By:

bearcub When: 11 Mar 16 16:51

3.6
