While she's entitled to share her music with whoever she pleases, fans aren't going to see it that way. They'll see a greedy artist that wants more money, and is happy to restrict what is essentially uploading a bunch of music files to a server as a ransom for not getting that money. Given the way she immediately backtracked, I think most people see her move as nothing more than a publicity stunt between her and Apple to promote both her new album and Apple's new service.
Spotify works because you're safe in the knowledge that you can listen to pretty much anything you want. With Apple Music in the picture, piracy will almost definitely rise, should artists decide to lock themselves onto specific platforms like Swift has chosen to.
