5. Spotify had a choice

They could remove Joe Rogan or Neil Young. They decided on Neil Young.

Yes, Neil complained and all that. But if Spotify had decided against the guy who was spreading lies and got rid of him, does anyone really believe Neil would have pulled out?

The end result was a choice for Spotify, no matter how you cut it. And they chose Joe Rogan.

They wouldn’t have done anything if he hadn’t asked. They also pay Rogan $100 million for his inexplicably wildly popular podcast. They weren’t going to eat that.

If they chose anything, they chose money.

Neil asked to be removed because the liar Joe Rogan was not removed. They knew that was their choice. Spotify did not remove Joe, so Neil removed himself. Obviously one or the other. That is a choice. Yeah, Neil gave them the choice. He offered them one or the other...it was still their choice to make.

Not sure if Rogan is all that popular. His contract was probably just more expensive. Yeah, they always choose money over people. It's what corporations are designed to do.

I posted something similar to this a couple years ago "How to cancel and delete your Facebook account."
