In the first half of 2017 in the US music downloads decreased by 24% as the music industry moves from downloads to streaming platforms- we’ve all heard of Jay-Z, Kanye West and Taylor Swift exclusively releasing their music on Spotify, Tidal and so on… And now Apple is set for the same move
By 2019 the tech giant will put an end to digital downloads and only allow streaming on their Apple Music, and iTunes downloads will be no more, sigh. This will restrict you music heads out there from purchasing any music and instead having to stream the songs. Long gone are the days of limewire, and soon it’ll be joined by iTunes.
