Young said Spotify Technology SA SPOT, -4.92% can have “Rogan or Young. Not both.”
Sounds like an ultimatum to me.

Yeah, he doesn’t want his music associated with Rogan.
By saying pick me or Rogan.
Thus the thread.
So pick one.
I picked Young to cave. If he meant it he would have broke his contract before running his yap.

He’s Neil Young.
He would have just pulled his toys then.
Isn’t that what he’s doing… assuming his toys are his songs and not a reference to power tools?
There isn’t room in the sandbox for both.
I take it you are backing Young.

Neil Young doesn’t have a contract with Spotify to break.
What are you talking about?
Man, I thought ya all were stretching the definition of “authoritarian” when you accused politicians of it… but now it applies to an artist who doesn’t want his music on a service. Now anyone who has ever issued an ultimatum is an authoritarian.

I back an artist’s claim to their content and where its distributed. If Rogan didn’t want his podcast on Spotify because Young was on there, I’d back him too.
I don’t think Mr Young is going to win this one.
Yeah I would call him an authoritarian when his complaint matches the government propaganda.
Something his free spirit used to condemn.
He is 21 and it’s time to leave sugar mountain.

Such prima Donna ego flashing.
This is fun.
I don’t see how he could lose unless he gets ■■■■■■ over by his label… which knowing record labels is possible… but I assume he’s such a veteran that he still has ownership of his catalog.
The government isn’t demanding Spotify stop streaming their art.
You don’t think Rogan, were he not locked in a contract, should be able to pull his content from a media streaming service?
He’s not trying to win anything.
The letter to his management didn’t make any demands other than to remove his music Spotify.
You say that like it’s a bad thing.

That was a crazy assertion.

It’s a good thing.
