Mick Jagger says he can still get satisfaction from the streaming revolution in music, despite it costing him millions of pounds in lost revenue. The Rolling Stones frontman is a huge fan of online music services, despite their impact on sales over the past decade. The 80-year-old rock icon says he is delighted young people can now access music of different genres and rare vintages at the touch of a button. He said he spent his formative years hunting for records by obscure R’n’B and blues artists not available in high street shops. Promoting the Stones’ new album, Hackney Diamonds, he said: ‘Streaming is much maligned. But the interesting thing about it is that people of all generations can access music from all periods. ‘Whereas before, if I wanted to buy an old blues record from 1955, that was really difficult. I had to do a mail order or I had to go into a specialist shop. Now I can see it is right there.’
