Yet, the ones who don't believe in the conspiracy are the irrational ones
right? lol
theres a whole thread on here full of insane conspiracy theories saying all pop stars are actually robots but the people who dont believe taylor & apple orchestrated this whole thing are the irrational ones
ohh atrl
This is the only place where I see people bashing her
My husband even called me otw to work to ask me about what's going on because he heard it over the radio station
This move is historical. It's the poor souls who only care about their hatred instead of the dying music industry who are painting this in a negative light.
My friends sent me messages asking what's going on with Taylor and Apple and I explained. They were nonbelievers at first and then after Apple replied they messaged me again praising Lord. She's so global

I love how windmillsmusic and bobbybones, cant give her any credit for anything good she does, yet both constantly kissing ass of every minimal female country singer that comes along.
Windmills is longtime carrie and miranda fan and bobby is pressed Taylor wouldnt date him.
Did you guys notice how all of a suddden Carrie and others are hopping on the #supportfemalesinicountry fad because its the hip new thing; yet carrie and a few others never had one good word to say to Taylor when shd was the biggest in countrt, nor even acknowledge her now when shes made supporting fellow females and music artists her mantra.
p.s. this isnt shade at carrie or female country artists.
I just wish they would sometime give Taylor a tip of the hat for her contributions, and that windmills and bobby would get their asses figuratively kicked
Meant to say..windmills and bobby and other sourgrapes tayhaters immediately trying to push the "this was all prearranged between tay and apple" agenda to discredit her. They cant stand that shes viewed in a positive light.
The photographer thing is starting to spread on the web. Tree Paine better work work
The worst part is that it is ********. I already gave my two cents on that:

Wow, that truly was one huge failure at a clapback. According to him, she should ask him for rights of her own image and stage set-up. She isn't even hiring him, but allowing him to take photos for other publications, etc.
"But you seem happy to restrict us to being paid once, and never being able to earn from our work ever again"
Does he really want to be paid more than once for taking a photo of her on her own show, when she didnt even hire him in the first place? He truly tried it
Then again, it says that the company will have worldwide right to use the photos FOR ANY NON-COMMERCIAL PURPOSE, meaning they wont be re-selling their photos, but allowing their use for free. Apple's purpose is definitely commercial, even if they are not charging for a given time-period. A true, laughable failure indeed!

By the way, here is a little more insight on the matter:
The right of publicity prevents the unauthorized commercial use of an individual's name, likeness, or other recognizable aspects of one's persona. It gives an individual the exclusive right to license the use of their identity for commercial promotion."
As the contract clearly says, that company allows him to use Taylor's "likeness" for commercial purposes 1 single time. After that, they can do as they please with the photo AS LONG AS THEY DONT SELL IT, because it is HER IMAGE and she holds exclusive rights to that, just like i hold exclusive rights to my image and you hold exclusive rights to yours. Either way, it is still a very complex matter so we could argue for the rest of eternity with no one being right at all.

Prearranged between Taylor and Apple? I did NOT know BOBBY BONES is so stupid. Under the serious risk of permanently damaging APPLE's good image? Especially among ARTISTS which are always one group of their major clients.
Edit: A Mistake was a mistake, no matter you correct it or not. With Taylor's help, APPLE avoided totally losing ARTISTS...at least musicians.
Edit2: But the damage was REAL, even though they changed their policy quickly. But ARTISTS will remember what happenED.
This was not the first time APPLE made mistake in music area, but different from U2 album, this not paying ARTISTS during three months trial for FANS, had fundamental problems. It's not about a single artist (band), it's about the ARTISTS as a group. I don't know how they decided their initial plan. No matter how great the crisis response system APPLE has, you can not deny that: THERE WAS CRISIS FIRST, THEN AFTER THAT, RESPONSE.
Edit: If they are so proud about the great publicity they got from this CRISIS RESPONSE, and forget the cause of this CRISIS, APPLE is in real problem.
Edit2: If they consistently made mistakes in the same area, it means they should immediately improve that section. This time, with Taylor's help, they minimized the damage (The damage WAS still there, even though became much smaller), how about NEXT TIME?
What happened to Bobby Bones. I was watching a Taylor interview just a year ago on his show and they totally get along.
