Roger Waters is the latest artist to slam streaming music as the Pink Floyd great accused Silicon Valley execs of being “rogues and thieves” for the way they have reshaped the music industry. In a new interview, Waters talks about how difficult it is for an artist to thrive in an age where their music is nearly given away. He also clearly states that, for him, a Pink Floyd reunion “is out of the question.” Waters told the Times UK, “I feel enormously privileged to have been born in 1943 and not 1983 … When this gallery of rogues and thieves had not yet injected themselves between the people who aspire to be creative and their potential audience.”
