http://money.cnn.com/2015/06/21/media/taylor-swift-1989-apple-music/index.html It was pretty ridiculous what Apple wanted to do. Impressed she took them down, and pretty quickly.
It's funny that the company most beloved by urban liberal hipsters has arguably the worst business practices of any major technological company out there.
When I saw what she said, I wondered where this would lead and if others would follow. I am surprised Apple cried uncle that quickly.
Yeah a PR war with her would not be smart. She'd just turn it into a number one hit song and win anyways
I hate Apple, and say the same thing you just did to any liberal I know who worships the fruit of original sin.
When someone is right, they're right. Swift was right. While it doesn't affect established artists as much, it could be financial ruin for flash-in-the-pans, or small time acts.
The funny part is that he mocked and put down the same people that loved and made his company. I think Microsoft being used for business was the cause as they were rebelling against the system.
See, I like Microsoft. Are they perfect? Hell no. Do they pretend to be some sort of revolution? Nope.
And she can't sing a lick, imo. Apple should have known better. I mean her writing songs to destroy every former boyfriend she's had should have been evidence enough that she is a vindictive [itch bay].
I don't have any issues with writing songs about ex boyfriends. Whatever fuels the creative fire. Breakups are oft written about in songs for a reason. I agree her voice is pretty average.
Just pretend 'Blank Space' is about you. She won't say your name, but she'll write it. Also, I should note for full disclosure that even though I don't tend to like her stuff, I think that particular song is just fantastic. Just a perfect pop song. I also like "mean" a good bit, and the song about kanye west a decent bit. So I don't love her music, but I certainly don't *dislike* her music either.
