WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO DISTRIBUTE MUSIC ONLINE?

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DISTRIBUTING MY MUSIC INDEPENDENTLY?
Greater control and ownership: Independent music distribution allows artists to retain greater control and ownership over their music. They can choose which distribution channels to use, set their own pricing, and maintain creative control over their work.
Increased exposure: Independent music distribution offers artists the opportunity to reach a wider audience by distributing their music on popular streaming services and other platforms. This can help them attract new fans and build a following.
Faster distribution: Independent music distribution platforms like UnitedMasters offer faster distribution times, allowing artists to get their music out to listeners more quickly than through traditional record labels.
Cost-effective: Independent music distribution is often more cost-effective than traditional record label deals. Artists can pay a flat fee or a percentage of their earnings to the distribution company, rather than giving up a percentage of ownership or control over their music.
Access to data and analytics: Independent music distribution companies provide artists with detailed data and analytics about their music, including how many streams their music is getting, where their listeners are located, and other important metrics. This information can help artists make more informed decisions about their music and their career.
Opportunity for growth: By leveraging independent music distribution services, artists can grow their fan base and reach new audiences, which can lead to more opportunities for live performances, merchandising, and other revenue streams.

CAN I TRANSFER MY RELEASES TO UNITEDMASTERS FROM ANOTHER DISTRIBUTOR?
Absolutely - The first step is understanding if you’re under any agreements that prevent you from moving your catalog to UnitedMasters. Assuming that you are not restricted, you will need to prepare your catalog to manually upload it to your UnitedMasters account. Once your catalog is prepared, you’ll want to set up your releases as “drafts” to minimize any lapse in your digital presence. Be sure to follow the instructions here to transfer stream counts, set release dates for your drafts, submit your release(s) for approval, and request your previous distributor to remove their version of the release(s).
