Rolling Stone reports that Apple has said that it has not threatened to remove the music of musicians who do not sign up to Apple Music from iTunes. “It will not be taken off,” an Apple spokesperson told Rolling Stone, following Brian Jonestown Massacre frontman Anton Newcombe’s claim that Apple had been bullying him about signing up to Apple Music.
