TikTok has profoundly changed the way we listen to music. Seven years after its launch, the platform has become the number one source of musical discovery among young people. This has prompted its parent company, ByteDance, to innovate by launching its own music streaming service in several countries.

The new streaming service is called TikTok Music. It arrived on July 6 in Brazil and Indonesia, and more recently in Australia, Mexico and Singapore. While users in Brazil and Indonesia can access the service in return for a subscription fee, those in Australia, Mexico and Singapore cannot, since TikTok Music has been launched in these territories in closed beta form, according to Music Business Worldwide. In other words, for the time being, it is available only to a limited number of testers, who benefit from a free three-month trial period of access.
