Last week I suggested, in a LinkedIn comment, that podcasters should all walk off Spotify together and keep them honest. Then I went and looked into how you'd actually do it. And that's when the truth of the situation emerged. And OMFG is it a situation. So this episode was going to be the good news about organising a walkout. Instead it's the honest version of why we can't. In this episode: — Where's the button to leave Spotify — One tap to skip you, a support ticket to go — The free rider problem, and why strikes need strike funds — Why the trade bodies can't help with this one — What happened when Neil Young actually tried it — My own conflict of interest, stated plainly — The one call to action worth changing this week Podmastery goodies you can grab:
