Tencent Music Entertainment is convincing more people in China to pay for music. Because of the size of China's market, it's more than Spotify 's claim of 574 million monthly active users —across 184 countries and territories. TME's "music value [is] still underappreciated," Morgan Stanley analysts led by Alex Poon wrote in a late November report. "We see room for [TME] music revenue to double and profit to triple in the next three years," the Morgan Stanley analysts wrote, noting "limited risks from macro and competition." Revenue from music subscriptions is estimated to rise 38% in 2023 versus 2022, Morgan Stanley estimates.

REUTERS/Florence Lo/Illustration/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 14 (Reuters) - China's Tencent Music Entertainment (1698.HK) beat estimates for third-quarter revenue on Tuesday, helped by steady growth in paid subscriptions on its music streaming platform. Tencent Music, which includes platforms such as QQ Music, Kugou Music, Kuwo Music and WeSing, has won listeners over by bundling everything from karaoke platforms to live concert streaming services. Total revenue of the Tencent Holdings Ltd-controlled (0700.HK) company, however, fell to 6.57 billion yuan ($900.9 million) in the third quarter. Net profit attributable to equity holders of the company rose to 1.71 billion yuan, from 1.06 billion yuan a year earlier.

Analysts say online content platforms pulled the plug on features such as virtual lucky draws after the government in June started cracking down on live streaming, as part of a wider clampdown on online gambling. While the platforms say they ban gambling, analysts say the extremely popular lucky draws are often manipulated by live streamers colluding with viewers to share the prize. None of these companies mentioned the gambling crackdown when they reported their earnings, and they did not respond to request for further comment. However, the co-founder of a popular live streaming platform in Guangzhou, who declined to be named citing the sensitivity of the topic, told Reuters that several popular live streaming and live chat apps had to suspend services after police probes. Online gambling remains a concern, with the authorities saying in 2020 that the cross-border flow of funds for gambling posed a national security risk.
