Apple Streaming Pisses Off Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift is the BEST pop star out there.

I mean, if we're talking about her peers, like Viley Virus, Piggy Azalia, Lady Caca and the rest.

She is usually the ONLY ONE taking a stand against piracy and other abuse, and not just for her very rich self, but for ALL artists.

Where are the others? WHERE?

I have barely listened to a single Taylor Swift song; I'm not 16 after all, but I still like this chick. It's not about the music it's about what she stands for, and she won't stand for streaming. Well, few women do.

A while ago, I noticed some of my music pals on FARCEBOOK boasting, "I'm removing my stuff from iTunes!" Only, these were D-listers.

They could afford to boast and be moral. A month of streaming probably doesn't make 'em enough to buy a six-pack of toilet paper. Apple isn't even going to notice, aside from one bored employee ticking off boxes on items nobody heard of.

It was just a defiant gesture from over-50 hippie types, in return for a "nice" comment about "keeping the faith."

For Taylor Swift it packs more punch.

It sends a message worldwide, that there's something very stinky about "streaming."

Call me old fashioned (or pour me an Old Fashioned). I like the concept of RADIO, and finding and supporting a few disc jockeys who have taste and personality and turn people on to great stuff. I like the concept of BUYING the fucking music.

So thanks, Taylor. Sorry you were named after a demented-looking cockeyed walking drugstore. Why is it that as mellow as James Taylor is, he still seems like he could stab a woman in the shower?
