No, Apple won't ban artists from iTunes for opposing Apple Music

<article>

A firestorm erupted on Twitter this week after Anton Newcombe, front man for psychedelic rock band The Brian Jonestown Massacre, accused Apple of threatening him with an iTunes ban if his band didn’t agree to the terms of Apple Music. Apple says it will do no such thing.</p><p>
The biggest issue musicians have with Apple Music is the free three-month trial Apple is going to offer starting June 30. Apple won’t pay royalties to record labels for songs streamed during that period, which could have a significant impact on indie artists who rely on revenue from downloads. People who have free access to streaming music might not buy as many songs as they used to, and Apple won’t make up the difference with royalties.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2938027/no-apple-wont-ban-artists-from-itunes-for-opposing-apple-music.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
