you're on the board at spotify.ou think that streaming services can and the years of -- can end the years of decline the music industry has been facing? sean: i think we turn the corner and are getting back into growth. based on what i have seen coming out of spotify and apple. it looks like it bottomed out. for a while, spotify could replace cd sales. the decline in cd sales, and the decline in downloads, but not both. emily: how do you convince people to pay for services when there is so much available for free online, whether it is youtube or napster? -- or elsewhere? sean: it's a question of free versus paid that has gone back to radio. i would say that the services like spotify that monetize at a really great rate where we see, you know, users coming in to a free channel, we see at least 1/3 of those users over time become paid customers. there is obviously added value. and that added value is convenience, the ability to make a playlist, share a playlist with the outside world, organizing your library, it's all

, because ta lor swift, the artist that you signed when she was 14 years old is no longer on spotify,ome of the other artists are, and what is the reasoning there? >> well, with taylor, and really the whole mission and the volume that we wanted to use in saying, hey, this is not right, and address it is a platform that she has accepted and it has not been the right time to go back to spotify. but the rest of the artists right now, they are on most of the streaming services. when it gets down to superstar artists, it is really about the individual vision, and how they want their music represented and marketed. >> but there is a possibility that she will go back to spotify? >> never say, "never." >> fair enough. and now, of course, the letter that taylor swift wrote to apple, were you behind that and how do you feel about the apple music? >> well, the irony is that there were a lot of conversations going on with myself and apple and leading into father's day, she is in london and sends me a text from amsterdam to say happy father's day, and then she sent me a link and said, don't be mad
