Why music fandom is strategically important for D2C
Music rightsholders are keen to leverage artist IP in an increasingly competitive direct-to-consumer video landscape, where appealing to silver streamers is a strategic play to minimise churn in an era of peak video subscriptions. The monetisable emerging long tail of video streaming, combined with the transformation of music IP into a content asset, has created the opportunity for the leveraging non-music IP for video audiences to build a new revenue stream that is free from the pre-digital constraints of the music industry.
