If this Apple Music thing was a PR stunt, then these haters could expose her and bring down Taylor in a massive scandal. They would love to do that, but they cannot. They know that they are just talking out of their arses and have no evidence whatsoever.
They'd much prefer to make themselves look like delusional numpties than give Taylor credit. You have to think what sort of pathetic loser would rather portray themselves as being an irrational conspiracy theorist than give Taylor any credit.
Not only are they displaying incredibly irrational behaviour by declaring their belief in a wild theory based on zero evidence but they are acting as if they are somehow smarter, more clued up and less gullible than everyone else. So all the mainstream media and music industry people are praising Taylor and these cretins are sticking their fingers in their ears and acting as if they have some inside information, when they have nothing. It's embarrassing to see.

With a Tap of Taylor Swift’s Fingers, Apple Retreated
In an age of depressed record sales, her albums sell by the millions. Her tours fill arenas around the world. And a complimentary tweet to her nearly 60 million followers can help kick-start another singer’s career.
But as Taylor Swift’s victory in a one-day battle against Apple this week showed, she also has a rare power to influence the music business itself, at a time of deep anxiety among artists big and small about the value of their work. These days, the concern is about the value of music in the digital age, and by taking on Apple — and Spotify before it — Ms. Swift has emerged as perhaps the most effective negotiator in the business, for her own benefit as well as others’.
“She is the most powerful person in the music industry,” said David Lowery of the bands Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven, and an advocate for artists’ rights. “She is able to bring the debate to the mainstream.”
(CNN)What hope is there for the rest of us when Taylor Swift can make a giant like Apple bend to her will?
That's what the superstar singer apparently did when she complained about the tech company not paying artists during the three-month free trial period of Apple Music.
"Apple Music will not be paying writers, producers, or artists for those three months," Swift wrote in an open letter. "I find it to be shocking, disappointing, and completely unlike this historically progressive and generous company."
Quicker than you could say "1989" (the title of her album she threatened to withhold from the company), an Apple executive was tweeting what appeared to be a reversal of that policy.
Anyway, like we said: This played very poorly as a PR move. Indie labels that hadn’t signed deals yet with Apple were already upset about terms of the new service they considered unfair, and this withholding of money for three months just made the situation worse. Smaller artists and their representative bodies were upset, but whatever. Apple does what Apple is going to do, because it’s basically a country. But then on Sunday, Taylor Swift flipped the safety cap on her Big Red Button and launched a Tumblr nuke at Cupertino, at which point we all got to watch as one global superpower got cowed by an even bigger one—in the form a 25-year-old pop star
If anyone deserves the credit, Rabhan says, it’s Swift, who he says has emerged as the most unlikely advocate for artists’ rights. She’s not a crusty old-timer or an unknown artist with a lot to lose. She’s the most relevant star of our day, the person who needs the money least, but is using that power to stand up for emerging artists. “I would have never expected it to be her,” Rabhan says, “but Taylor Swift is the voice of artists right now in a sea of silence.”
