Taylor Swift is shaking off her opposition to Spotify and other streaming services. 。

The singer plans to restore her catalog in full to Spotify, Pandora, and other platforms starting on Friday, a source familiar with the situation confirmed. Swift originally pulled out of the streaming services in 2014 over qualms with how the companies pay artists.。

Surely that news simply slipped Swift's mind when she decided to lob her own competing bombshell at the exact same time. 。

"Music is art, and art is important and rare" 。 Swift has long been one of the biggest critics of the streaming industry's business practices. 。"Music is art, and art is important and rare. Important, rare things are valuable," she wrote in a  。

op-ed on the subject in 2014. "Valuable things should be paid for. It's my opinion that music should not be free."。

The criticism of free music was a big sticking point with Spotify in particular. The company is the word's biggest music streaming service and the only major one to offer an ad-supported free tier. 。

Swift already made peace with Apple Music two years ago after she hashed out a high-profile beef with the company that ultimately compelled it to pay artist royalties during a six-month initial free trial period.  。
