Today I told you that Apple was accused by a well-known artist of threatening to withdraw his music from the iTunes Store in the situation in which he does not agree to offer his creations for free listening and then paid through Apple Music.
Calling Apple a satanic corporation, the artist raised many question marks regarding the way the Apple company signs contracts with various artists to provide music for the Apple Music service, actions not characteristic of the company.
Faced with increasing attention paid to the artist's statements, the Apple company reacted through a spokesperson, who stated that Apple will not withdraw from the iTunes Store the music of artists who do not want to sign contracts for Apple Music.
Although the Apple Music service is intensively promoted by Apple worldwide, it it is even being investigated by American prosecutors, wanting to find out if Apple negotiated contracts with major record companies that could affect the performance of its competitors.
Despite reports to the contrary, an Apple representative tells Us that the company is not threatening to remove music from its iTunes Store by artists who do not sign up for its new Apple Music streaming service. "It will not be taken off," a spokesperson for the company says.
Practically, Apple has attracted more discussions regarding the legality of the existence of the service for Apple Music than the benefits offered by it for users, and this should be worrying for the managers from Cupertino.
Apple Music will be launched in Romania by the Apple company and this despite the fact that iTunes Radio or iTunes Match were never offered, but it remains to be seen what exactly we will be able to listen to, since some record companies refuse to make contacts with Apple.
