The most anticipated album of the year will not be released to streaming services.

According to The New York Times, Adele's latest album, "25," won't be available on music services like Spotify, even though her single "Hello" broke Spotify's one-day streaming record. "Hello" was streamed 4 million times.

Both of Adele's previous albums, "19" and "21," are still on Spotify. 

Spotify said in a statement about Adele's decision, "We love and respect Adele, as do her 24 million fans on Spotify. We hope that she will give those fans the opportunity to enjoy '25' on Spotify alongside '19' and '21' very soon."

Adele has yet to comment on this decision.
