YouTube or TikTok

It’s a toss-up between these two platforms for music video creators. Which is better, TikTok or YouTube? 

To be honest, both platforms are as different from each other as chalk and cheese. While YouTube is good for long-form videos, TikTok is for shorter format videos. Many viewers prefer YouTube for its educational content. 

On the other hand, TikTok is for Gen Y and Z. These people have less time and are always in a hurry. However, you can still use TikTok to promote your music videos on YouTube.
