Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters has slammed the 'rogues and thieves' who run free streaming sites, saying they make it impossible for young musicians to earn a living.

The songwriter and guitarist said the power of the digital music providers in Silicon Valley makes him 'angry' as they 'steal' from musicians and use the money to buy mega-yachts and planes.

'These... thieves! It's just stealing! And that they're allowed to get away with it is just incredible,' he said in an interview for The Times Saturday Review.
