Spotify loses Neil Young
It was the biggest news around Spotify last week. Singer-songwriter Neil Young gets his entire oeuvre from the Swedish streaming service and placed it on Apple Music and Amazon Music, among others. The reason for this move was the podcasts of the American Joe Rogan. Some invited guests proclaimed in this The Joe Rogan Experience sometimes fake news about Covid-19. According to Young did Spotify not enough to counter this. The streaming platform has since taken steps.

Switching from Spotify to Apple Music
To switch from Spotify to Apple Music, you will of course first need the Apple Music app, which is standard on your iPhone. With the SongShift app, it’s easy to copy your favorite playlists from Spotify to Apple Music. Read how to do this in the step-by-step plan below.
Step-by-step plan for switching Spotify to Apple Music
- Download and open the app SongShift and tap Apple Music.

Log in to this page with your Spotify account.
- In the main menu, tap ‘Continue’ and then ‘Get Started’;
- Tap the plus icon at the top right and tap ‘Setup Source’;
- Go to the ‘Playlist’ tab and tap the green Spotify icon;
- Select the playlist you want to export to Apple Music and tap I’m Finished.
Repeat the above steps to add more than one playlist. The SongShift app only allows free users to add one playlist at a time. If you want to do everything at once, you need to purchase a premium account.
Why should you switch to Apple Music?
In addition to appearing to be involved in less ethical dilemmas, Apple Music offers many other benefits as well. For example, Apple Music is extra useful because it is fully integrated into Siri. This allows you to easily put on your favorite music with voice control without opening the app. Apple Music also offers music in a higher ‘lossless’ sound quality. This is ideal for the audiophiles among us.
