Forgive me but what are you protesting exactly? You are certainly free to do whatever you want, I'm not the thought police.
But maybe take a second, step back, and think about what you are outraged about... A private enterprise retracting publication of their IP.
Outrageous! Imagine if TV shows or movies were removed from Netflix! Or if someone bought Vine and shut it down. Or if part of a Wikipedia page were ever edited.
Nothing was intended as a personal attack. I just don't understand the outrage.
And how is this corporate censorship? There exists a private contract between two parties, money changed hands. I have no evidence that Spotify is overstepping their bounds here. They can remove any content any time. It's not an open platform. To even get content on their you have to form a contract with a distributor, who I imagine is under no obligation to actually distribute anything.
That doesn't change that this is a form of censorship. They have a legal right to do so but that doesn't change what it is.
Note that censorship doesn't have to be globally complete in order to qualify as such. If I kick guests out of my house for discussing certain topics that's an act of censorship. Possibly a well justified one depending on the scenario.

At some point you have to look in the mirror.
