Björk explains why Vulnicura isn't on Spotify in new interview
Björk has joined Taylor Swift and Thom Yorke in publicly decrying Spotify.
In a new interview with Fast Company, she's explained her decision to keep the record off of the service, calling it "insane":
"We’re all making it up as it goes, to be honest. I would like to say there’s some master plan going on [with the album release], but there isn’t. But a few months ago I emailed my manager and said, "Guess what? This streaming thing just does not feel right. I don’t know why, but it just seems insane"... to work on something for two or three years and then just, Oh, here it is for free. It’s not about the money; it’s about respect, you know? Respect for the craft and the amount of work you put into it. But maybe Netflix is a good model. You go first to the cinema and after a while it will come on Netflix. Maybe that’s the way to go with streaming. It’s first physical and then maybe you can stream it later."
