[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Paul Lee] The Fair Trade Commission has launched an investigation into allegations that Google Korea abused its monopoly (market dominance) status by selling YouTube music subscription products to Premium, a YouTube subscription product.
According to the industry on the 24th, the Fair Trade Commission launched an on-site investigation into Google Korea's headquarters in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
The Fair Trade Commission is reportedly looking into whether Google has unfairly shifted its market dominance to the music streaming market by selling YouTube music to YouTube premium products that can be viewed without advertisements.
The monthly subscription fee for YouTube Music Premium is 8,690 won, and the monthly subscription fee for YouTube Premium is 10,450 won. If you subscribe to the YouTube premium, you can use the YouTube music service together.
