ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, has expanded its TikTok Music streaming service into Indonesia and Brazil, signaling a potential disruption in the music streaming industry. TikTok Music, which replaced the Resso brand, is a subscription-based service that requires a TikTok account for access. Although a US launch hasn’t been confirmed, beta testing in major markets and a filed patent suggest it could happen soon.
