Re:Spotify is removing Neil Young’s music after falling out ... by smorgusofborg on Thursday January 27, 2022 @06:55AM (#30099403)
Spotify committed to a deal they would have estimated around $1 per year per premium member on exclusive rights to JRE. Neil Young may want to influence their choices in how they mediate social/political discourse that doesn't change the discussion musicians should be having about whether they are the equivalent of films on Netflix. Sidelined for original/exclusive content that inherently has to have a social/political mediation run by Spotify.
