This feels like a Landr advertisement

A lot of artists have been having problems with Tunecore.

Yep, I had those too. Tried to cancel my plan with them for days, but their customer service s*cks. Only when I directly e-mailed one of there people saying they where scamming me, that they actually anwsered me. In the end they did cancel it for me, but the overall experience was so demoralizing.

Don't worry about the bad reviews. For the most part that's just unhappy and underachieving customers but for the most part only the unhappy ones will ever leave a review. Decide what you want distribution or label services or a full label deal and pursue what’s best for you.

Great episode.. it reinspired to check my CDBaby account, which they now call a 'Legacy Account'. - The lack of a human with phone support really kills it, it's tough trying to be inspired anymore.

@countuppodcast Ай бұрын

Not every artist on the free tiers, for these distribution platforms are utilizing bots for promotion. That is a false assumption, and a disrespect to the thousands of artists who are getting started, and or utilizing this type of distribution.

You should look at the Trust Pilot reviews of these companies. All are mostly negative. And go through the Terms of Service like how Miss Krystle, the Top Music Attorney does.

Great video! I'm specifically looking for a distributor (apart from CDBaby who failed to deliver to spotify and after 6 weeks i had to pull release) who can help me re-release a soundtrack album with 18 songs of mine on it and one 'bonus' song from a totally different artist on it as track 19. I need this release to be listed under my name (not as a various release with 'appears on') and i cant have my artist track on his track- his artist name only on that one. I have tried about 5 of the subscription model distributors and this format doesn't seem possible (?) so i think only option is CD baby. Would love to hear if you have any thoughts/other options! Thanks

Wait but isn’t it better to pay a 1 time fee to leave songs up? Instead of them taking royalties ??? Like if someone gets a lot of royalties.. that’s way more money to the distributor than the one fee right?
