I think they all failed for the same reason, video is expensive and the markets can't pick a winner when the game can't be won without money.

TikTok parent, ByteDance, already owns DouYin, which is the original APP that TikTok was based on, with significant ingestion from Musically. As a matter of fact, TikTok's previous CEO was Musical.ly's founding CEO.
