How’s any of that different from Bandcamp? From what I have seen, they are a shining beacon in the dark.
It is a little more expensive since you have to pay for every release, but given that I am in this for the long haul it makes more sense to do that than pay a yearly fee and not collect everything. I mean, I barely get any plays right now, so its kinda moot atm but who knows 5-6 years from now.
I am looking at using CDBaby going forward because I can collect ALL my royalties in one go, including international ones. I have to give up 9% of digital distribution revenue, but I will collect 100% of everything else.
I'm currently using UnitedMasters Select, but I have read some things that concern me. Shady behind the scenes/buried in fine print/legal jargon. They apparently will claim your songs publishing rights for themselves unless you ask they don't, and that process is a nightmare. So even tho they say you get 100% of your royalties they are actually holding back on certain ones so that when you try and go file yourself it'll stop you and say their is a conflict because someone else has already claimed them. And they don't claim them with your information but rather the name of the company that underwrites UnitedMasters.

Looking at switching distributors for my music. I've done some research and, best I can tell, I picked the wrong one. Yay, more work.
