Prince is on Spotify but Taylor Swift, Thom Yorke and Beyoncé are holding out

Despite Prince's refusal to deal with the much-maligned streaming platform while he was alive, his music is now available on the site. But there are still a few superstars who won't play

The music industry and its audience was up in arms this week - some flailing with joy, others expressing their disquiet - as the music of Prince became available on Spotify. Now, you may have missed it, but Prince unfortunately popped his clogs last year. In life, he was thoroughly against his work being on the platform, so the argument of "It's what he would have wanted, his music lives on for all" probably won't cut much ice with the fans deriding it as a betrayal.

Alas, Mr Nelson has become yet another monument to topple in the temple of Spotify-refusal, with only a stoic few holding out and refusing to offer up music for near-enough nowt. Here are some of the others refusing to "do a recently deceased Prince".
