Taylor Swift he has written an open letter to Apple, explaining why he has decided not to release his album "1989" on the company's new streaming service. Where she begins the letter, praising of Apple as one of his best partners in the sale of music, and has praised this, as a facility to connect with his fans.
However, she proceeds to criticize apple by not to pay writers, producers and artists during Apple Music's initial three-month trial period. Although we already know, as he explains in this article our colleague Miguel Ángel Juncos, who Apple has backtracked. But what was she saying in that letter, for Apple to think about it?
It's not about me. Fortunately I'm on my fifth album, and i can keep myself, my band, and the entire management team. This is, the new artist or band, who has just released their first single and is getting started. Also to the producer, who works tirelessly to innovate and create, just like Apple's innovators and creators, they are pioneers in their field.
Three months is a long time without paying, and it is unfair to ask anyone to work for nothing. I say this with love, reverence and admiration for all that Apple has done. I hope that soon I can join them in the progression towards a streaming model, which seems fair for those who create this music.
Singer concludes in his letter to Apple, that they change their policy, since there is still time.
We do not ask Free iPhones. Please don't ask us to make music without any compensation.
