TikTok’s New Venture Could Merge Community and Music Streaming
TikTok has patented TikTok music which leads to the possibility of a music platform, a distributor or shop. This could make TikTok a competitor to Apple music and Spotify as a new contender in the streaming business.
Users now don’t need a separate IGTV app to watch longer videos. The experience is embedded in the main app, accessed via in-feed teasers, a tab of the Explore page, promo stickers in Stories, and profile tabs.
