As you probably already know, for quite some time, Apple has been offering free courses to users with its products in the Apple Stores, called "Today at Apple", thanks to which they usually learn new and interesting things. In addition, these classes sometimes also include guest artists, in order to improve their quality, and this is precisely where the problem lies.
And, apparently, from Apple they would not be compensating these invited artists with money who bother to go to the stores to give workshops, but instead, once the course is finished, instead of receiving financial compensation, what they receive is some of the firm's own product.
Apple would be paying the artists invited to "Today at Apple" with products and not with money
As we have learned thanks to a new report published by KQED, It seems that they have been questioning some of the artists who have given workshops of "Today at Apple" in one of the stores of the firm present in the city of San Francisco, and the truth is that all agree that they have not received any kind of financial compensation from Apple for this.
Instead, what these people in question get is some of the brand's products completely free, but in this case we are not talking about an iPhone, an iPad or a Mac either, but in most cases the gifts received have been some AirPods, an Apple TV or an Apple WatchAlthough it is true that they are not bad at all, they also have a higher value.
In this way, although it is true that most of the guests do not protest about it, as they have indicated, it would be more logical for them to receive financial compensation for thisIn the end, the products they give away may be useful, but there is also the possibility that they are not, and in that case with money each one can buy whatever they want.
