-Apple is the latest music artist offender to receive flames from Taylor Swift. This morning the singer posted an open letter to the company on Tumblr explaining why she will not be making her music available on its new streaming service, Apple Music. She's especially unhappy about the free three-month trial, during which artists, writers, and producers won't be paid for the music users listen to. "We don't ask you for free iPhones," Swift writes, "Please don't ask us to provide you with our music for no compensation." (Tumblr)
