Last week, I read in the WSJ an article about Beyonc\u00e9 and Jay-Z and their new album, “Everything is Love”. If you have a subscription, feel free to read: Beyonc\u00e9 and Jay-Z Go Pay-to-Play With New Album<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Naturally, that tempted me to listen to the album with my Apple Music subscription. I was not moved (keeping in mind, Jay-Z’s Empire State of Mind is one of my favourite tunes).<\/p>\n

So Taylor Swift has done before too. One of the reasons why I have subscribed to Apple Music was to listen to her music when she pulled out of Spotify. While this has changed, I have never bothered to change my streaming music service of choice.<\/p>\n

It occured to me that these folk only do this to get in the news. It is free advertising, via “earned media”. I generally don’t read music reviews in the papers that I subscribe to, but if it makes the main pages, it is quite hard to skip over.<\/p>\n
