Why do streaming services of movies and tv shows have platform exclusivity, but music streaming services don’t?
In: Other
Lots of music does have exclusivity, just not nearly as much as tv shows and movies. A big part of this is because various movie ans series streaming services are paying more for exclusivity up to and including producing shows/movies on their own.
Most musicians don’t want to have their music pigeon holed into 1 streaming service because that cuts down on their potential royalties. It does happen though. I think AC/DC once released an album exclusively through Wal Mart and if memory serves me, it worked out pretty well due to Wal Mart pumping the hell out of the album and back catalogue. That’s a pretty unique situation though.
