    If you (any artist) got your ISRC and UPC from distrokid, after you stop paying the annual fee and distro pulls your work from streaming platforms are those codes yours to keep or just gone?
    If i have my own ISRC and UPC can i use them in Distrokid?
    Does distrokid want my ISWC aswell?

    Once you got tons of ISRC codes for your music, you can pretty much
    list your music for sale everywhere. Do your own listing, you don’t
    need those music publishers to get a cut from your royalties.
    Maybe you need barcodes too to sell physical copies.

      That’s why YOU DO NOT USE THE ISRC THAT TUNECORE PROVIDES YOU. Tunecore FOR SOME REASON generates ISRC codes that cannot be tracked by SoundExchange and SoundScan WHICH MEANS YOUR LOSING MONEY . And then Cd baby provides ISRC codes that DO WORK...BUT!!! They take a huge percentage of earnings. So the next time you use Tunecore DONT USE what they GIVE YOU as far as codes and upcs..because ownership of those two things is very importantant ...there’s so much shit that goes into releasing music and so many people losing out of some good floating cash out there

      To answer your question. Before uploading beats you want to encode data such as your producer name songwriter information. Ill do a video showing how to encode data. The only way to prevent people from ripping your beats is to NOT upload them or release beat tapes on streaming platforms.

      depends on where you are in your career. Ever song you release should have an ISRC. UPC's come when you are selling products such as CDs and merchandise, ect. A lot of distribution services will allocate upc and isrcs to your music for you. Regardless you need both at some point. I have more videos to help you understand that as well.
