But when they announced the news to the broader internet, it drew down on Ben and Rebecca Cordingley the ire of the easily provoked gaming world, specifically those who believe that Epic's purchase of exclusives for its nascent gaming storefront is an affront to all that is sane and good in this world.

And PS4 exclusives like Days Gone, Spider-Man, and David Cage's Detroit: Become Human are all on the other side of this calendar year… (Again, breathe.) Beyond Good & Evil 2, who knows when that'll happen IRL; and the terrific-looking 3DS game Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido is also a 2018 release.

But before you join the thousands of other stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerfherders over on sites like The Pirate Bay, consider this: There's a really easy way to watch The Mandalorian and other Disney+ exclusives for free (and legally), and it's by signing up for the streaming platform's weeklong trial.

Again, this strategy isn't entirely new: Publicists have always seeded stories and exclusives with gossip publications, and Garner herself was known for appearing in public parks with her children following cheating rumors on the part of then-husband Ben Affleck, essentially inviting paparazzi coverage that would steer focus away from rumored infidelity.

We learn as much about Schiller's ruthless need for exclusivity, promising (and paying) tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege of interviewing Gilmore and controlling who else might do so, as we do his growing fatigue for chasing those exclusives all across the country, to the detriment of his health, family, and morality.

Mondo, the geek-centric online art gallery and culture store, is bringing a couple of badass exclusives to Comic-Con this month: a colored vinyl pressing of the soundtrack to Castlevania: Rondo of Blood (or as it's known to fans of the SNES remake, Dracula X) and a poster of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

There were plenty of exclusives in the three hour show, including the premiere of Kaytranada's Karriem Riggins-assisted "Bus Ride" (from his highly-anticipated debut album 99.9%) and a track from Kid Koala's upcoming album Music To Draw To. For those of you who missed the special episode, you can listen to it here.

Select merchandisers like Hasbro and Funko, incredibly popular geek franchise licensees who make Comic-Con exclusives every year, garner their own wristband lines, which means that to even have a chance at getting into their booths to buy something, you have to line up for a wristband hours before the booth opens that morning.

The company has implemented "play anywhere" and the Windows 10 Xbox app as part of this initiative, and its console "exclusives" are often available on PC. The more powerful Xbox One S console was even rumored to be Microsoft's big leap into just releasing a cheap Windows machine for gaming, but turned out to just be a hardware update.

At just under 40 minutes long, with nine tracks total, and it's the first album for either Carter since their love-and-adultery duology (Beyoncé's 2016 Lemonade, which accused and then forgave Jay-Z of infidelity, and Jay-Z's 2017 4:44, which featured Jay-Z repenting for his sins, also both first released as Tidal exclusives).

That's not to say the selection of games on the Xbox platform is a bad one, or that there are no good exclusives for the Xbox One (we've already mentioned a few)—but you're likely to find more gamers buying a PlayStation than an Xbox if the list of exclusive titles is the only factor at play.

"My goal is to earn back what I spend for my ticket, my food, and basically other exclusives that I wanted for myself, so basically it becomes free," said a reseller who goes by Dee D. He flips Funko figurines and Lego, and sees the surcharge he adds on as a reasonable price to be paid for his time.

"An organization of nearly 4,000 news professionals; an organization that has spent huge sums recruiting ever-greater reportorial muscle; an organization that promises both sides a fair shake; an organization that values right-on-the-money exclusives — it just cannot abide getting shamed by Sputnik and Breitbart," Washington Post media critic Erik Wemple wrote at the time.

In a series of Twitter posts over the weekend, Mr. West said that the competition between Apple and Tidal — in which exclusives play a major part — was hurting "the music game" and asked Apple to "give Jay his check for Tidal now," which some people saw as corroboration of rumors that Apple was interested in buying Tidal.

Sony exclusives "The PS4 is still a hot console and games look beautiful and run pretty well, so it's up to PlayStation to reveal big reasons why the PS5 won't just be 'Here's a prettier version of your games,'" said Fadel Ragheb, 23, a gamer, streamer and podcaster in Montreal, who has played on all of PlayStation's previous consoles.

Other companies have learned from this mentality: Disney is moving some titles from theatrical releases to Disney+ exclusives, and AT&T and Comcast will use their respective streaming services — HBO Max and Peacock — to try out shows and movies that people might take a chance on through a streaming service but wouldn't pay money to see at a theater.

Steam is an easily accessible, bottomless pit of video games, and with a handful of Xbox One and PlayStation 4 exclusives aside, every game on the console looks significantly better running on even a mid-tier PC. Players have realized this over the last couple of years, and have begun taking their PC games from their desk to their couch.

Tidal, which trails in the streaming race dominated by Spotify and Apple Music, has relied largely on splashy exclusives from its artist partners to encourage sign-ups, making itself the first — and, in some cases, only — place to hear new music from Kanye West, Rihanna and Beyoncé, whose "Lemonade" has remained a Tidal exclusive since its release in April 2016.
|

And while it wasn't just Apple aligning itself closely with top talent this year — Tidal, the smaller music service owned in part by Jay Z, raised its profile with exclusives from Beyoncé, Kanye West and Rihanna — it was relentless in pursuit of such collaborations, even with more obscure artists, such as Jamie xx and Lil Yachty, that nonetheless added to its creative credibility.

While Vidme says it's working on new ways to monetize videos, the current system hinges on a sense of intimacy: following Patreon's model, you can "tip" creators for videos you enjoyed or opt to subscribe for as low as $1 per month in return for exclusives (the amount each video has earned is displayed next to it, a feature some users have balked at).

In addition to the onslaught of big titles that just got released as PS4 exclusives, the company has also announced Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, The Last of Us Part II, the upcoming God of War sequel, Insomniac's Spider-Man game, Kojima's Metal Gear follow-up Death Stranding, and Square-Enix's Final Fantasy VII Remake, all of which will only be available on Sony's console.

Grammy winner Frank Ocean released his digital album Blonde exclusively on Apple Music, which led his former label, Universal Music Group (UMG), to ban exclusives for its artists (Ocean released Blonde after fulfilling his contract with UMG.) Amazon Music has sought to differentiate itself from its competitors by providing lower prices, and promoting its user-friendliness and technology — particularly its voice integration with Echo and Alexa.

But the company's current approach to exclusives and cross-platform play might make the Series X an especially tough sell if you already own, say, the Xbox One X, released back in 2017, or a capable gaming PC. Update January 10th, 6:50PM ET: Clarified that Microsoft is referring to first-party games published under Xbox Game Studios, and not all games on the Xbox platform.

At a time when it would seem like platform exclusives are at a premium, especially ones tied to loyal and recurring audiences like sports sim players, Sony San Diego looks like it's going to be making games for both the Switch and Microsoft platforms (the Xbox account tweeted out the announcement, but it wasn't absolutely clear whether that implies a PC version or an Xbox version).

We wrote those b-sides a couple of months later, after we finished recording it because the label said they needed more songs for exclusives, but I think those songs were on the tips of our tongues and if we'd been given a little more time to write they probably would have made it onto the record in opposition to some songs I don't think stand up as well anymore.

"Apple is just starting its game subscription business and while it sounds like those games will be of fairly high-quality in a mobile context and will be mobile exclusives, at least for a limited window of time post-launch, the chance that there will be a large exodus from the Xbox, PlayStation, or Switch communities into the Arcade camp is practically zero in the next five years," Ward said.

It would be the perfect service with which to use as a sort of waste collection dump for all the unnecessary accounts you now have to set up to book a table at a restaurant with an app service, watch terrestrial TV on demand or be able to listen to Tidal exclusives during your one-month free trial because you're already paying for two other music streaming services and are quite frankly fed up.

Bloomberg also explained the issues with the streaming business in general, where some key artists like Adele, refuse to participate, and others give exclusives to competing services, as was the case with Kanye West's "Life of Pablo" (at least, initially.) And Apple still has a profitable download business to promote – revenues from which remained steady at nearly $3.5 billion, Bloomberg said, which is almost 3 times that of Apple Music's streaming subscriptions.

You won't have access to all of those hot exclusives (except for the ones made available on Xbox Game Pass for PC), but you will be able to play titles from a myriad of developers both big and small, as well as enhanced power, better graphics, and higher performance in general You can find them pretty much all over, but big retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart are always running great deals on consoles, accessories, and individual games.

Executives at two major record labels said that in recent weeks Spotify, which has resisted exclusives, had told them that it had instituted a policy that music that had benefited from such deals on other services would not receive the same level of promotion once it arrived on Spotify; such music may not be as prominently featured or included in as many playlists, said these executives, who spoke on the condition of anonymity in order to discuss private negotiations.

Aside from the apps just looking nice, Tidal has appeal for audiophiles and serious music fans: Not only is there a lossless audio tier, but you also get access to a bunch of exclusive content, like the upcoming Prince LP. Whether those exclusives last long enough or are compelling enough to make a Tidal subscription worth it is debatable, but the platform seems genuinely interested in promoting live events, rare tracks, artist interviews, and up and coming artists through its platform.
