Records today announced that Prince's well-known hits are now available on streaming music services such as Apple Music, Spotify, Google Play Music, Pandora, and iHeartRadio Plus and All Access, after a nearly two year exclusivity period with Tidal.

Prince, who passed away in April 2016, had pulled his music from all streaming music services but Tidal in July 2015. Since his death, Prince's estate worked on deals with various services to make his music available for streaming again. As expected, the songs and albums became available today.

I can't help feel that if Prince didn't want this, then his wishes should be respected after his death.

Must be a sign o' the times.

Glad found, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" run top 1 on the list, should be classic and great song of Prince.

Brilliant to finally be able to stream all his music.
