What is a music distribution service?

A music distribution service is a platform that provides music through the Internet. This allows artists and record labels to distribute their music online, while listeners can enjoy music through streaming or downloading. Famous services such as Apple Music and Spotify are examples.

How to use music distribution service

To use a music distribution service, first prepare the music you want to distribute. Next, register with the distribution service and upload the music. Enter your name, artist name, and music information (title, artist, album name, etc.) in the registration. The distribution service distributes the music to each digital store and delivers it to many listeners.

About the Rights of Music

When distributing music, it is necessary to understand the rights of music. There are mainly "copyright" and "neighboring rights" in rights. Copyright is the right to the lyricist / composer of the music, and neighboring rights are the right to the performer or record producer.

When using the distribution service, it is important to properly manage these rights. In particular, it is necessary to clarify the conditions and compensation when your music is used by others.
