Last week, Young made good on his vow to have his music removed from Spotify after demanding that the streaming service choose between him and controversial podcaster Joe Rogan, with fellow folk rock superstar Joni Mitchell following suit.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have also flagged concerns over misinformation on Spotify's platform, but reiterated their commitment to continue using it to publish their content.
The prolific rocker this week demanded the streaming giant remove his music - he had 2.4 million followers and over six million monthly listeners - unless it was willing to drop Rogan, whose show is the platform's most popular but is widely accused of peddling conspiracy theories.
Spotify has not replied to an AFP query regarding the musician's request. As of Tuesday Young's music is still on the platform.
Hipgnosis has acquired half of Neil Young's global copyright and income interests of his catalogue, which includes 1,180 songs.
Rocker Neil Young has lashed out at Donald Trump for using his song in his presidential campaign.
