Just a day after Spotify agreed to remove Neil Young’s music from its service, Apple Music trolled its streaming rival by giving the musician some rock star treatment.
In a tweet sent late Thursday, and later pinned to the top of the official Apple Music Twitter account, Apple called its platform «the home of Neil Young.» Some Apple Music users also reported seeing Young’s albums and playlists promoted front and center in the Apple Music «browse» section with the banner «We Love Neil.» The messaging is a clear dig at Spotify ( SPOT) and possibly an attempt by Apple ( AAPL) to use Spotify’s PR headache to gain some ground. In the third quarter of 2021, Spotify reported having 172 million paying subscribers. Apple has not disclosed comparable subscriber numbers in two years, but one recent report suggested Apple Music remains well behind Spotify in the market.
