War by the business of music in streaming is with the swords in a high, and thus evidenced by the news that every so often come with Apple Music and Spotify as main protagonists. Them two services of music in streaming used all them weapons that have in their hands with the objective of win advantage facing its rival, and If Apple is getting agreements of exclusivity with certain artists for launch their albums first in Apple Music, Spotify could be punishing to those artists doing that his music not appears in sites very relevant of your application. Although Spotify has denied these accusations, are several those artists that supposedly would have denounced this practice.
Drake, Frank Ocean, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry among others have had more or less long exclusivity agreements with Apple Music. These artists are the best known, and perhaps least affected by this so-called strategy of Spotify, but it seems that others less well known that are affected by this. Worse still are unemployed artists unknown to many who appear on Beats Radio 1, radio Apple with Zane Lowe as a presenter, since it seems they would have been threatened by Spotify with relegating them to the darkest of your application corner if they agree to appear on the radio program from Apple.
Spotify obviously denies these allegations, but Bloomberg says that the information comes from sources very close and that they are well aware of the company’s strategy. Spotify is not only uncomfortable with Apple Music unique, because even Universal Music Group has forbidden all its artists to grant exclusive to Apple Music, which seems that it has prevented that Lady Gaga can present their album exclusively for Apple streaming music service. This is just one episode of this war, following deliveries, coming soon.
