I totally agree with you! CD Baby is a fantastic platform for independent artists to distribute their music. They offer great services like music distribution, publishing, and marketing, which is why they're considered one of the best in the business. And it's awesome to hear that they've helped you with your music as well.
I also appreciate the informative content that CD Baby puts out on their UA-cam channel. They offer valuable advice on topics like music promotion, royalties, and music industry trends, which is really helpful for artists who are just starting out. So kudos to them for sharing their knowledge and expertise with the community
No Distrokid's affiliates talk about the price increase and the cost breakdown like you. Very good info.
Hahaha that price breakdown for DistroKid is BRUTAL 😂😂😂
Cdbaby FTW 🎉
CD Baby still takes 9% commission, but people make too much fuss about commission anyway. 9% is fine, it's not like most of us are going to be making millions. And, for those lucky few that do, you will be snapped up by a major label at that point!
CD Baby have always been one of the best and this new upfront pricing puts them right up top for most artists.
Yeah, a few artists gave me access to their Spotify for Artists and I was stunned to find out how many weren't recouping annual distribution fees. When I say weren't recouping, I mean like nowhere close. Kind of sad man. With CD Baby, at least the release can pay for itself over time.
Thanks very good. Great information,
Wow this is huge. Either the other platforms will have to conform, or I will be jumping ship 🚢 and leaving Distrokid. This may be a headache in transferring information but well worth it. You are the GOAT man! 🔥🔥🔥
Yeah, going to be nuts transferring everything over but worth it in the end.
@@Payusnomind Can you do a update CDBABY Vs Tune core update 2023 edition
@@wah8139 Sure
@@Payusnomind Your Efforts are appreciated
Makes loads of sense, thank you 🎉
Dangg literally as I'm about to start too, think CD Baby is the one
Game changer!
Thanks bruh
Cd baby is one of the best!
CD baby is a con. They put music on tik Tok and UA-cam without asking.
CD Baby promised they would sell my CD forever. But I can't find my CD on a CD Baby store.
Wow!! Game changer
I've been using CD Baby since the beginning of February. You didn't mention that the 10$ is for standard distribution. For their Pro service, which includes full publishing, it's 50$ per album/single. Which is whatever to me because I only care about the distribution, but for those who want full publishing, that might matter. Regardless, the only minor complaint I have about CD Baby is they don't let you submit cover art without text. You MUST have your artist name on the cover art. I had to change all my covers to reflect that. It's a minor detail but still annoying considering I see artists submitting cover art with no text all the time in other distributors. They also change your album title. If it includes 'EP' in the title, they remove it for some reason.
Peace. There was no need to mention Pro because it's unnecessary. If an artist wants to collect Publishing they can sign up for Songtrust directly, CD Baby uses Songtrust. I give a 20% discount on Songtrust as well. It's only a $100 one-time fee vs. the price of CD Baby Pro.
high time all these distributors stop extorting money from us independent artiste trying to grow by ourselves, they use us
@@KyngOJI hear where you're coming from, but everybody uses everybody. Who's out here making decisions that work against their interest?
@@Payusnomind I wonder what it takes to create your own private distribution platform that works only for your interest. can you make a video on that?
everybody uses everybody? damn, thats a sh*tty attitude to have and way of life to live.
Thanks all that you do. Quick question, does it cover copyright. I have a lot music on my hard drive. In reality, I need to put it out. I been dragging my feet, because I don’t have the right art work and website. I just want it to look right and not amateur .
distrokid deleted my music, so i started a new account, paid 30$, they deleted again, then i made a new account with a different address they deleted all my 100 albums and 5 had leave a legacy. distrokid is a bad platform and they stole all my money from me for the streams. I switched to CD baby, way better.
I signed up w Tunecore but can’t get my releases approved. Can I just switch over to CD Baby since nothing ever came out? Also, will this unlock Spotify for Artist profile access?
We appreciate you bro♨♨♨♨♨♨♨
Which distributor would you with/ tune core or cd baby
🔥🔥
Thanks for the vid, very helpful. I want to ask you, if I release a song through CD baby can I distribute the video of the same song through another DSP seeing that CD baby do not do video distribution? How can I make this happen? Any suggestions?
Does CDBABY have "splits" option like Distrokid? If so, I'm in!!
Nope
Does this $10 fee for an album allow you to release a compilation or Various artists album ? Or you add an additional fee for every artist you put on that Compilation/Various artists album just like you add a fee on Tunecore and Distrikid?
That I don’t know. Would have to look into it.
@@Payusnomind Please Do 🤝
A producer took hundred and thirty nine dollars twenty four cents($139.24) to open cd baby account for me to distribute my music later on i tried to upload my song to find out cd baby says i should pay 9.99 USD that was how i was scammed what should i do
my question is: Distrokid let's you write your labal name for example on youtube description to be shown for 35$, does cdbaby do the same or if i release there will be shown released by cdbaby?
CD Baby is one of the most artist friendly services I know of. A lot of things that Distrokid charges for NOBODY in the business ever charged for. CD Baby always allowed you to put your name or label name for your releases. Even things like distributors including "Custom release dates" in their price comparisons. Again, every distributor used to allow custom release dates by default. Only Distrokid was charging for custom release dates so other distributors started highlighting it as a feature.
@@Payusnomind Thank's ill try it out, thanks for your videos, all the info and the 50% !!
Does CD baby still take 30% from youtube content id or is it now 9% for content id? I see theres no yearly fee but its $10 per release?
Still takes 30%, still takes 9%. It comes down to what you want though. A lot of these distributors that give you 100% of Content ID either suck or have accusations of stealing artist's money. Outside of those guys, the lowest you can get Content ID for is about 20%. The thing about CD Baby is, peace of mind. 9% is the price of peace of mind. Had an artist end up in the hospital for a long stretch, debit card couldn't be charged, he comes home, all his music was gone because he wasn't paying the annual fee. The annual fees can be so low they seem like nothing but life often has something to say about it.
I'm having problems paying for my order. when i pay by visa card. Can you tell me when you can't handle it. but in my account has been deducted from your side. I'm very upset
CD Baby the best
My release has been on CD Baby since 2005. That's how far I go back and I haven't had a reason to take it down. Never had a problem there.
Facts!
Salute fam
what does it pay per stream ?
@@deyyluvvzion_that depends on Spotify, Itune, etc
Is this a one time 50% off code? Or can it be used for multiple releases?
That I don't know. Just to be on the safe side, might make sense to pay for multiple releases in one order if you can.
@@Payusnomind I’ve actually set up to move my whole catalog over. They after 50% off for pre existing releases. The more and more I keep digging into them, I’m liking CD baby way more than Distrokid. By next month I’ll have moved over to them exclusively (and their sister company Soundrop for cover songs). The discounts they give out, the monetization options, and just the security of keeping your stuff up permanently and physical merchandise just sounds way better than what I’m currently using.
Hi, is it 9.99 per single/album? or its 9.99 for unlimited
10$ for single no unlimited
It unlimited bro
How much are you being paid by CD BABY?
how much percentage for producer per stream
Whatever was negotiated.
i have one important question...
if i release with cdbaby.... will my music will be uploaded forever?
like... if i die and can't manage my accounts any longer... do my songs remain uploaded forever for posterity?
thanks in advance!
Yes, they do. That's one of the major reasons for choosing CD Baby. I had releases with both Tunecore and CD Baby since 2005. I hit a rough patch in my life and my music got removed from Tunecore but through it all, it never came down from CD Baby. Since 2005! Now, you have to decide if that's worth paying 9% of revenue for because if you make enough to cover that cost, likely you'd be ok with Tunecore.
@@Payusnomind thanks for the reply! i guess it's pretty important for me for the songs to remain for posterity :)
ok-soon-link-up
Lmao distrokid heads our on here looking crazy. Then the cdbaby heads are smiling lol -JOHNNY VEGA
Does CD baby work in lebanon?
I don't see why it wouldn't. It's an international company.
This information is outdated after only 2 days. Check again. Its 50$
No, it’s not.
it's not outdated, but it is incomplete. the massive price increase on Pro Distribution should be addressed. it's rediculous how much they increased prices for something simple they've been doing this whole time. was $35 now it's $50. rediculous.
Something I haven’t seen discussed yet on UA-cam makes me think these people aren’t really using CDBaby
