can anyone ELI5 why music streaming never fragmented like TV streaming did?

An album being exclusive to a particular platform seem to be incredible rare. TV platform continuously remove things from the catalog to reduce costs but that does not seem to happen often in music.

Songs are cheap. Ever heard of buying something for a song?

It's because that recording industry, the RIAA vs. the MPAA, has had a stranglehold on the industry and artists for much longer. They are much better at exploiting artists while paying them next to nothing.
