This week, many news outlets reported on Neil Young sending a letter to Spotify threatening to take his music down if they don't remove Joe Rogan. However, the headlines were very misleading. Who did Neil Young actually send the letter to? What actually happened? Was this just a publicity stunt or does he actually care about the guess and content on Joe Rogan's show? Time will tell, but if it was legit, how could this affect other musicians in a free market.
