The streaming service Netflix plans to introduce new content formats that were once the basis of traditional cable television. To this end, Netflix has been in talks with the music service Spotify to discuss a potential partnership on several projects, including music awards and concert shows.
This was reported by The Wall Street Journal, citing sources.
Other possible projects for Netflix and Spotify include interviews with celebrities and documentaries about current events.
Meanwhile, Netflix is relaunching the classic American television talent show Star Search. It is set to release Building the Band next week, which will feature musicians auditioning for bands. A music competition is also in development, which the company plans to launch in the coming months.
Millions of people around the world who have given up cable TV or never used it are instead choosing Netflix for content they previously got from their televisions. That’s why the company is trying to create everything from movies and series to reality shows, stand-up comedy, and live broadcasts.
