Taylor Swift hit with ‘absolute terror’ during Apple royalties dispute

The popstar criticized the streaming service for a plan to withhold payment for music artists during the services free-trial rollout.

The 1989 World Tour Live documentary is set to hit Apple Music exclusively on December 20.

Taylor made the admission during an interview with DJ Zane Lowe on Apple Music’s Beats 1 Radio to promote a new concert film she is releasing via Apple Music this month. Apple said it would change its policy and would pay artists royalties. I’m so honored I get to share the last night of the 1989 World Tour with all of you.

According to CNBC, Apple introduced Apple Music in June.

“Today I begin my 26th year of freaking out over stuff”, wrote the singer to caption the pic in which she is seen with agape mouth as a child.

After thanking those who wished her well on her birthday, the 26-year old pop star revealed a trailer to “1989 World Tour Live“.

Since Apple Music launched in June, 6.5 million people have signed on as paying subscribers, CEO Tim Cook said in October, with another 8.5 million people participating in the music service’s 90-day free trial.

Directed by Jonas Akerlund, the film features performances from guests Mick Jagger, Justin Timberlake, Lorde, The Weeknd, Alison Krauss, Mary J Blige, Selena Gomez, John Legend, Fetty Wap, Steven Tyler and Miranda Lambert and many more (including celebrity guests Ellen DeGeneres, Serena Williams, Lena Dunham, Kendall Jenner, Julia Roberts, Chris Rock, the us women’s soccer team, and Kobe Bryant).

Yesterday, Apple announced that its Music service will have the exclusive rights to stream a concert film from Taylor Swift’s current world tour.

Apple Music is now the only streaming platform where Swift’s best-selling “1989” album is available.

As for Swift, there has been nothing else said by the singer since her social media posts confirming the deal, but it is expected that a significant amount of money has been transferred to her and her music reps, Universal Music Group and her label, Big Machine. She added that she used to be upset about the approach and advised the company to consider the music industry.
