Dear iMusician,

I hope you find this message fitting, I just couldn’t find more proper place to post this to.

I am currently researching digital music distribution services for my future projects and would greatly appreciate it if you could provide detailed information regarding your offerings and terms. Specifically, I am interested in the following:

  1. Platform Reach:

    • Do you distribute to Russian or CIS music platforms such as VK Music, Yandex Music, and Zvuk (SberZvuk)?

    • Do you offer customizable destination selections (i.e., control over which platforms a release goes to)?

  2. Codes & Metadata:

    • Do you provide free ISRC and UPC codes for releases?

    • Do you support lyrics distribution (e.g., to Apple Music, Instagram Stories, Musixmatch, Lyricfind, etc.)?

  3. Audio & Video Specifications:

    • Is it possible to upload high-resolution masters above CD quality (16-bit / 44.1 kHz)?

    • Do you support music video distribution? If so, to which platforms and price of this service?

  4. Monetization & Rights Management:

    • Do you support Facebook/Instagram monetization or TikTok sound libraries?

    • Do you offer fingerprinting or anti-piracy services?

  5. Financials:

    • What are the available payout methods (PayPal, bank transfer, Wise, etc.)?

    • What is the minimum payout threshold?

    • How frequently are royalties reported and paid?

  6. Additional Capabilities:

    • Is there an option to add collaborators or split revenue between rights holders?

    • Do you offer tools for pre-save, smart links, or release promotion?

    • Is your platform open to independent artists or labels only?

Please feel free to send any brochures, documentation, or links that elaborate on your services.

Looking forward to your response.

Best regards
