Goodbye Spotify, Hello Apple Music

Apple Music’s new import tool makes it simple to leave Spotify—and the war budgets it supports—behind.

Boycott Spotify. Uninstall Spotify. Peaceful Mind.

Spotify just made it easier to say goodbye. Not because they suddenly gave us more options—but because Apple did. With the new Apple Music import tool now available worldwide, jumping ship has never been this simple.

And honestly? It’s the perfect time.

Spotify’s decision to pour money into Helsing, a defense AI company, has left a sour note. Music is supposed to be about connection, creativity, maybe even peace of mind. Instead, your monthly subscription is indirectly fueling tech that builds war machines. That doesn’t sound like the soundtrack anyone signed up for.

Why boycott Spotify

It’s not just about switching apps. It’s about what you support when you pay. Every stream, every premium renewal is a vote. And if the company you’re funding is investing in military AI, then you’re not just listening to music—you’re subsidizing conflict.

So if you’ve been thinking about uninstalling Spotify, this is your moment. Apple practically handed us the off-ramp.

How easy the move is

Apple’s import tool works smoothly:

1. Make sure you have an Apple Music subscription.

2. Open the app (or web player), go to Settings → Transfer Music from Other Services.

3. Choose Spotify.

4. Sign in, pick your playlists, and let Apple scan for matches.

5. Review anything that doesn’t perfectly match. You get 30 days to clean things up.

And that’s it—your playlists, your vibe, your library—moved over without drama. Even better, only your self-made playlists go through, which is perfect. Those are the ones that matter anyway.

Remember

Music should never be about war budgets. If Spotify wants to bankroll defense AI, then it’s time for music lovers to defend something else—our values.

Import your playlists first. Then uninstall Spotify. Let your music live where it belongs.

Why are Famous Artists Silent About War

Spotify funds war tech, yet the music of protest plays on in silence. #UninstallSpotify #BoycottSpotify

Spotify’s CEO Daniel Ek is pouring hundreds of millions into Helsing—a defense tech company now building AI-driven weapons: drones, submarines, even fighter aircraft systems. This isn’t just about music streams anymore. It’s about war.

And yet… silence.

The history of music is full of anti-war anthems:

Bruce SpringsteenBorn in the U.S.A. (1984)
-Often misread as patriotic, but actually a critique of war and its aftermath for veterans.

Buffalo SpringfieldFor What It’s Worth (1966)
-Protest song tied to unrest, adopted as a peace and anti-war anthem.

John LennonGive Peace a Chance, Happy Xmas (War Is Over), Imagine
-Timeless peace songs that became global protest anthems.

ChumbawambaJacob’s Ladder (Not in My Name) (2002)
-A folk-driven protest against the “War on Terror” and the invasion of Iraq.

Moby & Public EnemyMake Love Fuck War (2003)
-A protest against the Iraq War, merging electronic music and hip-hop activism.

Bob DylanMasters of War (1963)
-A sharp critique of the military-industrial complex.

Marvin GayeWhat’s Going On (1971)
-A soulful plea for peace, born from the Vietnam era’s unrest.

Creedence Clearwater RevivalFortunate Son (1969)
-Vietnam-era rock anthem against class privilege and the draft.

The DoorsThe Unknown Soldier (1968)
-A psychedelic protest dramatizing the death of a Vietnam soldier.

Pink FloydUs and Them (1973)
-A haunting critique of human conflict and the futility of war.

U2War (1983)
-A whole album themed around conflict, with Sunday Bloody Sunday as its battle cry.

Culture ClubThe War Song (1984)
-A pop hit that openly declared “War is stupid.”

Edwin StarrWar (What Is It Good For?) (1970)
-The bluntest anti-war anthem of its time, shouting “Absolutely nothing.”

Black SabbathWar Pigs (1970)
-Heavy metal’s signature anti-war track, condemning leaders who profit from war.

These weren’t just tracks — they were banners of conviction. They made fans believe these artists stood for something bigger. But today, conviction has become catalog. Protest has turned into background playlists. What changed?

Neil Young once pulled his music from Spotify over COVID misinformation, and it exploded in the media. Now, Spotify’s money is powering future war tech—and still, silence. No outrage. No protest. No PR (Press Release / Public Relations—same ol’ pa-pogi moves). And hey—his music’s back on Spotify. This from the same guy who dropped an entire album called Living with War in 2006. Now he’s on a “Love Earth” 2025 tour, while the Spotify missile is already strapped to him. He sang “rock and roll can never die.” True—rock won’t. People will. As if war matters less than a podcast. Why is that?

When it was good PR, artists took a stand. When it wasn’t, they stayed silent. The anti-war songs of the past still sell, still stream, still streaming on Spotify—yet their silence now only proves how easy it is to package conscience as art, then set it aside when fame and fortune are on the line. Maybe that’s the truth.
