    🙋🏼‍♂️ Some other questions about music distributors you might have:
    How does TuneCore compare to DistroKid?
    There's a lot of moving parts in the this comparison so I'm going to link you to a video where I compare both TuneCore vs DistroKid → • DistroKid vs Tunecore ...
    Is it actually free to distribute your music on TuneCore?
    Yes, it is free but only to a limited number of social platforms. TuneCore will distribute your music to Facebook, UA-cam, Instagram, and TikTok for free. Yes, for free. However, you only retain 80% of your music royalties that you would make on TikTok, for example.
    How do you know what music distributor to go with?
    Don't overthink the question to much. Go with the music distributor that works the best for your needs. For example, are you looking for music publishing in a music distributor? Then TuneCore would be the best option for you. Are you looking for unlimited releases? Then TuneCore or DistroKid would be the best option for you. Do you want free distribution to Spotify and Apple Music? Then a distributor like Amuse or United Masters might be right for you. You have to decide what are the features you want first.

    Hey, i have a question about TuneCore, so as far as i know, whenever you upload your first music Tunecore will generate a new profile and the music video itself, you will get YT content ID. So my question is when profiles merge, and you claim your official artist chanel, can you delete the video Tunecore generated for you, and reupload the song with your own video. This really freaks me out, i couldnt find any topics about it.

    • @zephyrkhambatta
      @zephyrkhambatta 7 місяців тому

      Yes you can. I've done it. And somehow, UA-cam still recognises that video as your content, when someone does a UA-cam search for you as the artist. This could be because I have an official artist channel, or regardless. I'm not sure.
      EVERYTHING gets lumped into your official artist channel, and then you can delete the audio with album art videos they automatically create.
      But do write in to them, and check if they will help you collect any money from your official music videos which you upload yourself!

Because i just found out with distrokid... you have to wait until you get a cc claim on your channel and then dispute it.. i find that unfair if that's the case.. then the distributors earn 20% until the cc claim is cleared and that couls take days or weeks.. does anyone have more info on this? Are you able whitelist your chanell on Tunecore and then when you upload on music is should be all clear automatically?

      Where do I begin…I released an album around 2009-10. They distributed it to all the digital companies that were present at the time. In all the years it’s been out there, I’ve seen one check for like $25. I’ve seen all the sales stats, but never the payout. They are really good at giving your music away for free!
      And the management of the meta data is handled by a bunch of baffoons!
      They take forever to respond and take care of any issues you have. I’ve sent a complaint and issue of meta data on iTunes over a year ago. Still this issue is not been taken care of. They also mixed up my initial release with another artist of the same name. That took forever to get my album placed under my own artist page.
      They are happy to take your music and make money on it for themselves. And, there is no way to audit their records.
      As if this wasn’t enough. The biggest issue I have with them, was when Spotify went public, they automatically sent my music to them without consulting me first. Spotify never sent me a notice of intent to distribute my album either.
      Once again, to this day, haven’t seen a dime since that initial check years and years ago.
      If you want to loose your music forever, throw it into the eternal pit of digital distribution Hell!!!

    Since you haven't respected my remarks, and haven't solved my problem, you published my songs on wrong account on Spotify, you left me no choice but to say that we will no longer cooperate.
    Since i lost 20 days with you i will do my best that you never again trick anyone else like you tricked me.
    I also have to say: Money that you took, you save, so you can provide funeral for your children.
