It’s a little different as Spotify/apple/etc don’t produce music and are not trying to out license each other. Really good thing you don’t have to sub to half a dozen music services.
Grateful that they don’t. But they have tried to do it with podcasts.
Spotify “pulled an Apple”, bought Gimlet and moved all their podcasts onto Spotify exclusively. I don’t use Spotify and chose to find alternatives. I’m happy I did.
Music is next.
The shitshow will continue. I think it has just begun.

Tidal seemed to try going down this road with exclusives but thankfully none of the others followed.
Does anyone even use Tidal?
I believe they have a high quality streaming option that some audiophiles prefer.
Ah fair
Moded why not
Same shit definitley happens with record labels on streaming, thank goodnes for indie, kinda killed that a bit
Thank God I listen to DIY punk subgenres
DIY? That must not mean what I think it does.
ETA: It does mean do it yourself. Interesting.
Look into The Mountain Goats; all their early stuff was recorded on a boombox cassette deck.
