Neil Young ended his two-year boycott of Spotify due to Joe Rogan\'s podcast spreading vaccine misinformation, but his return is not a reversal of his stance. He came back because Rogan\'s podcast is now available on multiple platforms, not just Spotify. Young criticized Spotify\'s lack of high-quality audio and mentioned Apple, Amazon, and other services spreading the same disinformation. Spotify\'s rivals offer better sound quality. Young\'s boycott impacted his finances negatively, with an estimated loss of around $300,000 in royalties.
