Too bad she forgot to mention that the rest of her albums is available there, just not the one that's #1 on iTunes and is still selling well.

I suppose it means that her pervious records are not in demand enough, so no compensation to the music makers is needed since basically very few will listen to those old records.

She needs to stop hiding behind small artists, it's been proved many times that labels keep majority of the money anyway and Spotify barely makes any profit.

Yeah, why hasn't she spoken out against record labels? They take much more money away from artists than streaming does.

Only the best songwriter of our generation would know how to write such a inspiring open letter

Others would struggle to write a tweet

Because she's on an independent label and probably has a good/fair agreement for compensation. That's not her fight.

No, the Apple free 3 month trial ends after Apple Music's first 3 months. It's not a 'when you make an account' thing.

There'd be no point in making it last forever because people would just create new accounts every 3 months.

No, honey. They have a way of limiting people from creating new accounts: by not allowing the same credit card to be used for a free trial a second time. That's what Spotify does.

That was not necessary.

Except that way isn't really circumventing anything because I've gotten through that way for months myself.

Honey, firstly, stop saying ******** without any confirmation. Every streaming service does a free trial accordingly to when a person joins. And there's another way of stop people from circumventing the system: by linking it to your Facebook or something.
Like Spotify is a place where you can not only listen to music, but see what your facebook friends are listening to, Apple Music is gonna be like that. That prevents people from creating account after account after account, cause then you wouldn't be able to connect to your facebook or else they would know it was the same account. I know there will be some losers who don't care about that, but most people like the social aspect of this, and it works for their benefit.

Isn't it more the record label's fault that artists don't get that much money from streaming rather than the streaming service itself though?

But this isn't her fight either if she's truly doing it for the small artists.

Well Adele's Adele's ln el is also holding back from this Apple streaming she's also signed to an indie label, so I believe this is more of the streaming service thing.

Did you even read the letter?

I’m sure you are aware that Apple Music will be offering a free 3 month trial to anyone who signs up for the service. I’m not sure you know that Apple Music will not be paying writers, producers, or artists for those three months.

It's basically confirmed right there that this is only for the first 3 months that Apple Music is up the free 3 month is available. Why do you think Apple isn't paying them for these 3 months?... If the 3 month thing was always available then they wouldn't have a valid reason to not be paying them the first 3 months. Not my fault you can put two and two together.

Every streaming service does a free trial accordingly to when a person joins.

Yes, and after those first 3 months end Apple will no longer be handing out 3 month trials. They may decide to do 1 week or 1 month trials, but otherwise, it's not happening for 3 months anymore.

And there's another way of stop people from circumventing the system: by linking it to your Facebook or something.

People can't create another Facebook account?

The 3 month trial isn't gonna be available after the first 3 months because there's always ways to get around it. I mean, we can bookmark this, and revisit if you don't agree and want to be right so much.
