Didnt microsoft give bread to apple so they can survive?
In 1997, Microsoft invested $150M in Apple to keep them afloat. I guess to evade antitrust laws.
@darealvelle my guess was right according to this article.

this is your problem…you're looking for someone to come out the sky and save you.you're a fool. nobody in tidal ownership is out here speaking and leading the charge for the crimes against my people. they aren't investing in black community either. all of them have had the money and power for years to help my people educate themselves. fukk jay'z, Kanye and the rest of them cacs included
It doesn't work like that.
The fukk do you need Jay Z to teach you?
You're sitting on the internet…where you can find thousands of ways to make money…learn how to be a better person, etc…
But you want to be a Crab in a barrel because Jay Z isn't holding your hand and telling you everything is going to be alright
Google is facing antitrust lawsuits by the EU, they got paper too. If they change the Play streaming service they could be a serious contender in coming out on top. Apple is a hardware centered company. Like if they could make headphones with the service built in they would over just making money off a service.

I don't think yall understand what Apple paper is like.
This is the most profitable company that has ever existed. They make more money than oil companies. Let that shyt sink in for a second.
If the idea behind Tidal is that artists will get a bigger cut of the proceeds from their streams, all Apple has to do is offer them even more to move their shyt over to whatever Apple streaming service they working on.

Jay owns 100% of the rights to all of his music except for RD. I thought everyone knew this.
The labels are the issue and not the streaming companies.

Apple's downfall will be the fact that they want it both ways and want to control both the hardware and software you use their products on
This approach eventually failed back in the day after the Macintosh launched. Sure it was a hit at first until Windows came out and Microsoft was like " um you can use our os on any pc. Boom just like that pc's got cheaper due to more competition and Apple was left in the dust. Fast foward a couple decades later,they beg the genius founder Steve Jobs to come back and he did the same thing with music and phones, but this time it worked. Now Steve has passed, Tim Cook is not the visionary Steve was. I predict Apple will not innovate as quickly as they used to. Make no mistake there stock is still very much worth owning. Apple is one of America's darling companies and the cacs refuse to let them appear inferior unless it's to another American entity. Can't go wrong brehs by putting your 401k stocks in Apple, Google, and Microsoft. I've made 20k in
3.5 years.
Some folk been on the same job 20 years and ain't have that much saved in retirement yet.
