    Apple Music bows down to Taylor Swift
  • After protests from independent labels and the more vociferous threat from Taylor Swift, Apple will now pay royalties to music labels and publishers during the three-month free trial of its Apple Music streaming service.

    Apple has decided to pay a "per-stream" royalty during the trial period.

    This news was welcomed by Taylor Swift in her tweet, "I am elated and relieved...They listened to us."

    Apple to launch its music streaming services
  • In June 2015, Apple will launch its much awaited Apple streaming service called Apple Music.

    The service will be launched in more than a hundred countries and is expected to reach Android users by fall 2015.

    Apple is making its new service free for three months so that people can try it, following which a monthly subscription will cost $9.99, or $14.99 (family).

    Is it really a 'free trial'?
  • The Apple music trial will result in $4.4 billion in customer acquisition cost to Apple which will utimately be borne by record companies.

    Therefore, independent labels such as Beggars Group (Adele, Jamie XX), Cooking Vinyl (The Prodigy, Billy Bragg) and Domino (Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand) may not sign on due to the free trial stalemate between Apple and independent artists.

    Apple rubs Indie labels the wrong way

    Apple rubs Indie labels the wrong way
  • Apple is having a hard time convincing Indie labels to join in the Apple Music launch.

    They're concerned that Apple's three month free trial plans will deprive them of much needed revenue.

    The labels are more miffed because Apple has ample resources to forgo of these terms and conditions, which will "literally put people out of business."
