Good question. Could be that Apple is more hardware bound and music distributors would need to be quite heavily compensated in order be exclusive apple and miss out on all those people with android phones.

It could also be that people are more willing to make platform purchasing decisions when it comes to video and game exclusivity but not music. This would lead to lower interest to buy exclusivity by the platforms, and thus having full market coverage is more economical for publisher.

Apple Music is available on Android (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apple.andr...), so there isn't a hardware dependency for that service. It competes more with Spotify than Google Play Music.
