Kid Rock Holds Back on iTunes
Ξ June 23rd, 2008 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Uncategorized |
Kid Rock is refusing to go all in with iTunes because he thinks that the service is screwing artists. To date, there?s only a handful of the singer?s works on iTunes. The rocker tells the BBC that artists don?t get paid enough for downloads from the Apple store. He says that the revenue share model is based on ?an old system, where iTunes takes the money, the record company takes the money, and they don’t give it to the artists.? He also says that the internet ?was an opportunity for everyone to be treated fairly, for the consumer to get a fair price, for the artist to be paid fairly, for the record companies to make some money. But they (Apple) stuck to the old system.?
