Here to explain the controversy, Business Analyst jill schlesinger. So taylor swift is a successful multimillionaire why is she turning on apple . She says it is unfair that apple is not paying artists during the free trial month period for the 9. 99 streaming service. Apple says wait a second, you artists should be able to eat those three months. Ab we pay you 1 more than all the streaming services. You should be happy and were going to bring you lots of new t customers. We have a lot of independentwe artists also making the same complaint. Dahler are they worried, will this make an impact on their streaming service . I dont think apple is really worried when you think about it. Although they are 194 billion on hand they could pay these artists but they say look, we are bringing something very different. Were bringing this Massive Customer base. Will you get paid. And frankly, for apple, even the bad press is not bad because more and more people are going to actually come to the servicepa and look at it. Dahler apple tends to be a trendsetter. What does this is a for the music streaming industry and does it bode well for the smaller artist . Streaming is here to stay and right now Small Artists arent making a huge living on the streaming industry but consider this, apple has 800 million credit cards on file. If they were to just get 5 of their user base, we would be looking at 40 million new streaming customers, they would generate 4. 8 billion and you know what . Right now the streaming industry in total is only 1. 87 billion so apple could be a game changer. And that could be good for smaller artists. Dahler jill schlesinger, thank you so much. Thank you.
