TUNECORE TRAPPED ME - How to SWITCH your MUSIC DISTRIBUTOR and save $$$ - Guitar Discoveries #75

Which Music Distribution service is best? And why pay $49.99 every year just to keep selling your album through TuneCore when you can pay a one-time fee and NEVER PAY ANOTHER RENEWAL? It's time to switch distributors. But WHERE and HOW?

Robert Cassard shares money-saving discoveries for every guitarist and band that distributes their songs and albums to music sales and music streaming services including Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Amazon Music, Google Play, Tidal and others.

Robert takes you step-by-step through removing his 1995 album "Get This" from TuneCore and moving it to CD Baby, the only distributor that charges a one-time fee with no add-ons, extra charges or renewal fees.

The key to switching is labeling everything correctly and transferring something called ISRC codes. Robert shows you every step in detail. Along the way, he also demonstrates how to properly license a cover tune, in this case Neil Diamond's "Holly Holy," so you can release your versions of cover songs legally.

Hi, my name is Robert Cassard. I'm a lifelong guitar player, singer-songwriter, producer, and music fanatic. I create Guitar and Recording Discoveries videos with a simple goal: to make YOU a better, happier, more confident musician!

In 2018, after more than 40 years as a pro musician, I started sharing my experiences through easy-to-understand YouTube videos — giving you shortcuts to de-mystify playing, singing and recording.

My "day job" is as a video writer/producer/director. Often it's hard to balance my need to earn a living with my desire to share the pure joy of music through the YouTube videos I make for free.

Your ongoing support means the world to me and encourages me do more of what I love — sharing musical discoveries to help and inspire you! I invite you to become a "Guitar Discoverer” by signing up on Patreon so I can keep providing you the most value I can. https://www.patreon.com/robertcassard
