Yesterday’s Apple conference aroused much controversy . First of all, the company was accused of that this time she did not show anything that would not be a copy of the ideas Microsoft or Google. Especially Apple Music caused a lot of comments – service the stream is an exact copy of similar services from Spotify at the helm.
His attitude to the new Apple gave briefly but succinctly Daniel Ek, CEO of Spotify . His commentary on twitter look like this:
What is interesting tweet was quickly deleted, but still wafted through the network.
Though this time Apple has focused on cloning someone else’s ideas, this service can the stream make a fuss in the market. Spotify not only did not earn, but its losses are growing at a rapid pace. Despite the growing user base loss in 2014 amounted to over 165 million euros, while in 2013 it was over 91 million. In addition, many artists are dissatisfied with the amounts they receive for the restoration of their works on the site.
Meanwhile, Apple suffers from excess cash and can afford to pamper the music industry higher margins. There are no known amounts that were offered for restoration, but the labels have long praised the cooperation with Apple, and certainly Tim Cook will take care to continue to be so. And who like who, but Apple users are able and like to pay.
Maybe so, “Oh ok.” Turn out to Daniel Ek ultimately bitter summary of the difficult business.
