A few years ago Beyonce and JZ and other known artists were not going to accept the streaming payout for their music and launched their own streaming service. I think that it did not work out. Haven't followed it but I don't think that they achieved critical mass.

I read once that the two of them are worth a billion bucks. If they can't turn the ride...anyone else is just howling at the moon.
