Hello I know this is a bit off topic, but I thought you could benefit. I have started a digital music distribution service for placing music in digital outlets  like iTunes,googleplay,spotify, and would like to know if anybody would need these services and if you could recommend any other groups to join for getting the word out about this purpose I would appreciate.. Im a blind protools user and this group has help me a-lot and I figure blind musicians could use these services. I would be willing to give commissions for anyone you refer. for further info just give me an email and I will answer  any questions you may have.

I have a question.

How is your proposed service different from DistroKid?
https://distrokid.com/

or CD Baby?
www.cdbaby.com?

thanks
Chris

from a service stand point there is no difference, the goal is to
deliver music to DSP's and collect money from DSP's back to artist,but
I m incorporating a distrokid feature with one of the payment
options. which is pay a yearly payment for up to 10 artist, but I do
plan to extend features as time and customer base grows. I plan to add
promotional services(internet radio,blogs,ETC.), offering industry
contacts, artist cross promotion,and many more features and input from
groups like this one. If all goes to plan I can incorporate people
from this group to help. . So the things that set me apart from
them now is not much if anything, but as time goes the things that I
plan to set us apart will shine through.

I'm actually very very interested in this! Especially considerring that I'm
on the verge of releasing my upcoming Christmas album in the next week or
two.

Right now, I use TuneCore, but, I'd be extremely interested in checking
things out. How much do you charge per album to distribute to ITunes?

I'd ask these questions to you privately, but I can't seem to find your
e-mail address in the headers for some really weird reason.

It would be helpful if you make a YouTube channel explaining how the service works and also when you features become available so that we are aware plus testimonies from artists.

Translation. They are using distrokid’s or similar services label management or reseller type services instead of their artis management services which is what you guy are similar with.These services generally also have a label management component which is used for managing multiple artist and etc. Indi labels use it for overseeing artist distribution. I see no reason why one couldn’t set that up and use it in th manner in which he is below. after all thats technically what label would do. I am assuming its the distrokid platform at use here given the reference to one of their features below.

no I have direct deals with each if I did that then I would have to
raise prices on artist then they should go to other distributers
that would be cheaper

Now in this day and age and artist himself can upload his music to any service including this one. Back in the days you had to go to a record label and to top it off wait to see if they liked your stuff. This is just another door opening for us.
