Apple Music seems to have a new marketing campaign: Humble bragging that it offers Neil Young’s music

for platforming anti-vaccine theories. Young said that Spotify represents 60% of his streaming income.

Spotify hasn’t said whether it will take any action regarding Rogan — but in a statement Wednesday, the streaming giant claimed it’s removed over 20,000 podcasts due to misleading content since the pandemic began. “We want all the world’s music and audio content to be available to Spotify users,” the company said.

Apple isn’t the only music service to emphasize Young’s content in light of the controversy. SiriusXM announced Thursday that it is bringing back Neil Young Radio, with Young’s music set to take over its Deep Tracks channel for the next seven days.
