There's like 3 companies that control all the music and they are getting a great deal from streaming providers. plus they can and do step on the artists to keep the end user price low. (use band camp plz)

Video companies wouldn't bother spinning up their own streaming service if netflix could give them even half of what Music companies are getting and there was only a single creator to screw over.
