Apple tries to kill free Spotify

[jjbomber]

Music companies don't mind making a loss on plays of their content on the radio;

How do they lose money? Radio pays them a royalty for doing nothing. How can they possibly lose money?

Well, if you don't think intellectual property has any market value, then, yes, you're right.

Radio pays for playing the music, also it is heard by many people who would not hear it otherwise which will no doubt result in more sales.

Perhaps your hate is misplaced. Without Apple, the Tech landscape we all use would look very different indeed.

Everything would look half price!!!

It's easy to drop the price on something when all the hard work in developing the thing in the first place has been done for you.

I don't care about Spotify. Their proposal regarding Youtube really pi$$ed me off.

What was that?

Bump.

Sorry for the late response. It's this bit.

Apple has also reportedly offered to pay Universal Music Group the money is receives from YouTube if it stopped allowing its songs to be played on the video site.

It would be foolish to believe everything that was reported and not proven.

Oh I see. I read it as spotify's proposal.

Today in Holland, Tidal and Raumfeld announced a collaboration wich eachother. Could this because of the Apple-Spotifyaffair?

IMO different in a far better way. I will never pay a penny to the Borg. Or Apple as they like to call themselves.

Never bought their products and have no intention to change that.

We have had 3 Samsung tablets, a Nexus and now a Lenovo tablet.

All extremely nice thank you, no help from the Borg.
