YANGON -- Major Chinese internet company Tencent Holdings is leading Myanmar's growth in music streaming services, plowing ahead while major U.S. and European providers have yet to make advances into the Southeast Asian country.
Joox, a Tencent music streaming service, provides mostly free pop music to users in the region such as Thailand and Indonesia. In Myanmar too, it has become a popular app for enjoying music on smartphones since its launch three years ago on the heels of its success in neighboring countries.
