The actual " Goal " in all of this is reducing a meaningless cost to Envato. To process 10-15,000 or so music tracks a month costs them money in hiring more reviewers etc.and the figure appears to be growing more and more each week.
Envato aren’t particularly making a significant amount of extra money from all of these extra tracks. I think that most established authors here will agree that everyone is now getting a smaller share of the actual money being spent here.
Envato and it’s authors will probably make the same amount of money with maybe 5000 tracks a month going through Audiojungle.
I’ve looked at the Portfolios of many of the authors who are particularly unhappy about this new initiative and there appears be a trend of having 10 or so “Inspirations”; "Epics "; “Happys” and " Upbeats " within their own librarys. Some authors have made a better job of reworking their own tracks than others. If you can produce 10 "Inspirations " in a few days and sell 10 licences spread across the 10, it’s not a bad tactic in the short term but in the long term it makes the library look like a “cheap scam” with 1,000’s of tracks titled almost the same and sounding very similar. From a buyers perspective it turns the whole thing into a lottery.
At the end of the day, the buyers are simply not there to sustain healthy sales of 15,000 new tracks a month and the rest of the audiojungle back catalogue.
