Stream Wars – She Used To Be Against Streaming Sites
When most artists embraced the emergence of streaming platforms, Taylor Swift took a different path by withholding her album Red from streaming giant Spotify. Eventually, she relented after taking the unusual step of withholding her songs, engaging in a three-year dispute over low song royalties.
While her decision to release music on these streaming sites was partly attributed to her album 1989 surpassing $10 million in sales, some speculate that it may have also been influenced by her rival Katy Perry's plan to debut her new album on the same streaming service.
