Spotify emerges as YouTube alternative, launches new video features with monetisation program

Spotify is launching a new service to compete with YouTube. In the past, Spotify allowed creators to make money from podcasts, but now it’s also encouraging them to include videos with their podcasts. Creators who want to join the Spotify Partner Program and start earning money from their video podcasts can apply to be part of it. These include options like chapters for easy navigation, comments, pinch-to-zoom, and better search tools to help users find video content they’ll enjoy. Spotify has also made it possible for creators to choose their own video thumbnails, similar to YouTube, and is redesigning its dashboard to help creators easily track how their content is performing.
