Distribution!!

Monitored Distribution with the possibility for a more cohesive deal. Its like a contest almost. Those that do the most go on to the next level of "collaboration"

Thoughts?​

Why do I need them when I can set up my own itunes account?

They would still be doing marleting it looks to me.
I just glanced though

I'm desperate enough that if I had the money, I would probably try this, any more thoughts?

Right! Im trippin watchin them try and stay relevant..
I mean no doubt they are a great name and resource , but honestly it looks to me like the future is just doing you and putting it out there best you can.
You gain the talent to cover all your bases and its sorta on no?

Its joint with TuneCore but with "A&R" monitoring. Its weird and almost too easy. I'd do it but I keep getting this feeling like I'm missing something ya know?

Labels are virtually dead right now, or soon to be anyways. If you plan to make money off music sales these days your highly mistaken. Merch, Touring, and maybe limited quantities of CDs sold at shows are really the only areas left to make money in relevance to your craft if your a producer or artist. So anything that pops up like this nowadays is more of a pyramid scheme then anything else. My 2 pesos.

True but I'd use it as more of a bridge to a better deal. or even to say "I've gotten distibution through interscope" ya know?
