Music – market competitiveness at its best

Specifics

  • A very large number of players on the market – lots of sites to keep an eye on
  • Hard to adapt to frequent price changes
  • No unique identifiers – finding matches can be a challenging task

Music

Greatest challenges

  • Price changes happen so often that in most cases capturing the product price once per day is not enough
  • Although brands and distributors are trying to enforce MAP rules on the market, retail sites are finding more and more innovative ways of avoiding MAP rules (one pretty common example is lowering the price on Friday PM, and going back up on Monday AM)
  • More and more sites (these are usually very young and aggressive, emerging market players) are trying to avoid being price-monitored by introducing smart IT-solutions for detecting non-human traffic. Price2Spy is very proud of its Stealth IP technology, which enables us to bypass such obstacles.
