Distribution

Choose a distributor by workflow, not by the loudest promise.

Distribution platforms change plans and features over time. Instead of pretending there is one permanent winner, use these questions to choose the tool that fits your release process.

Questions before choosing

  • Do you release one song a year or multiple songs every month?
  • Do you need automatic royalty splits for collaborators?
  • Do you care more about fast uploads, support quality, or extra promo tools?
  • Do you need cover-song handling, YouTube Content ID, or publishing administration?

Common tools to review

Start with official pages for DistroKid, LANDR, TuneCore, CD Baby, Amuse, and UnitedMasters. Check current pricing and terms directly before paying because distributor offers can change.

Low-risk first release path

For a first independent release, prioritize clear uploads, correct metadata, stable account access, and support documentation. Advanced monetization add-ons matter less than getting the first song live without rights or profile mistakes.
