I don’t think this really affects my point that the fragmentation situation is infinitely better with streaming music than it is with video.

Here’s - perhaps - a better explanation as to why.

The majority of major music labels - Sony/BMG, Columbia, EMI, etc - have the majority of their music available on the majority of the available streaming services.

This situation is unfortunately worsening on video streaming platforms as every major studio and their brother wants to completely commit to their own service.

It’s even worse as the result of this weird licensing moving around is series and films being removed from services you’d previously subscribed too mainly for those particular shows or films.

The only result of this is value loss and confusion presented to the consumer - as the recent CNN+ disaster shows, along with Netflix’s flailing subscriber count.

The music streaming world is exponentially better. Like - subscribing to a music streaming service is actually worthwhile. Video streaming services decrease in value with every new one that is introduced.
