Only Taylor Swift Could School Apple This Way and Succeed


Although Apple certainly isn’t hurting for success, the tech giant recently announced that it will be launching a subscription streaming service to rival the likes of Spotify, Rhapsody, etc. While this may sound innocent enough, many artists were annoyed to learn that the company would not be paying royalties during the service’s three-month trial period. Amid a sea of indie artists who might be easier for a giant like Apple to ignore, Taylor Swift—she of the infamous Spotify shaming—took one for the team on Sunday by announcing on Tumblr that she’d be withholding her most recent album, 1989, from Apple Music unless changes were made. “We don’t ask you for free iPhones,” she pointed out. “Please don’t ask us to provide you with our music for no compensation.”
