The market's expansion can be credited to the increasing popularity of the music streaming platforms, coupled with the rise in disposable income among individuals. The adoption of a dual revenue model, offering both free-trial options & paid subscriptions, has played a significant role in driving market growth. This approach allows consumers to select the service that best suits their needs, while also providing added benefits such as an ad-free experience & offline listening services.
The market is expected to experience significant growth, fueled by emerging trends and innovations from key players. Among these trends, the increasing popularity of cloud-based music stands out as companies prioritize the development of the user-friendly applications for seam-less music streaming on the portable devices like tablets & smart-phones. By integrating cloud technology into their platforms, these companies can enhance their services, offering advantages such as streaming across multiple devices & storage utilization. These advancements are projected to drive substantial market growth.
Key companies in the music streaming industry are actively focusing on innovation and launching new products and offerings to cater to the growing customer base and strengthen their market position. One such example is the partnership between SoundCloud Global & Merlin Ltd, in May 2023. Through this collaboration, SoundCloud aims to support Merlin members & affiliated artists by enabling them to participate in SoundCloud's Fan-Powered Royalties (FPR) model.
The Fan-Powered Royalties model is designed to prioritize a user-centric approach, where artists receive royalties based on the specific tunes that resonate with their individual fan bases. This innovative approach ensures that artists are fairly compensated for their music based on the actual engagement and preferences of their dedicated followers.
