Why Is Garth Brooks Not On Spotify?

[owenashford]

I’m curious why is Garth Brooks not on Spotify when most major artists are available there. Is it due to licensing issues, exclusive deals, or personal choices? If anyone knows the real reason, please explain.

Garth Brooks has not gone to Spotify because of a dispute over the royalties on streaming. He favors the platforms where artists have greater options in the pricing and distribution of music.
