I look at it like this, while Blink 182 and Tayler Swift sat on their hands telling fans they were just as upset as they were with the pricing fiasco, ultimately they did nothing to fix it.
And while I agree the current media climate is why Ticuntmaster made this move, if Robert Smith could step up and get fans some kind of recompense Blink 182 and Tayler Swift could've absolutely used the same public outrage to call bullshit, put their foot down, and at the very least slightly improve things for their fans.
Smith absolutely deserves the pat on the back he's getting. Even if he doesn't change shit permanently.
