Fact or Fiction? Any Musician Can Easily Get Songs Distributed on iTunes, Rhapsody, and More

So you're a musician right? Or a singer/songwriter? Maybe a band member? Possibly a person who just dabbles in recording music a bit? If your story is like thousands of others, you've recorded your music and it sits there on a cd or on your computer just waiting to be heard. So where do you go from that point? If you aren't an artist with a label, how do you get your music to the masses? I've personally been in the same position as a musician and singer/songwriter myself. Independent of any record label, I have written and recorded many songs over the years always wishing that I could get my music available on a larger basis. The concerns for anyone in the same boat are:

• If it just sits there on a desk somewhere...will people ever know or hear my songs?


• How can I distribute my songs and music online with large companies like iTunes and Rhapsody?


• How can I ever make any money from my music?


• How do I keep creative control and copyrights for my songs and music?

In this day and age that is so driven by technology and instant communication, it's just plain silly for anyone wanting to sell their music to ignore the benefits of getting it online. I've been there, and have had the same questions as any other independent musician hoping to get their music heard.

Fortunately, I recently came across a new company that is focused on helping anyone get and sell their music online. At first I was very skeptical, because in the past it seemed that without a record deal, my music was doomed to sit on my personal website selling only a few copies to the precious few who knew of me, or to sit on a table at our live concerts for sale only to concert goers. Not any more! This wonderful company is called Tunecore, and they can help anyone get and sell their music online at iTunes USA, iTunes Australia, iTunes Europe, iTunes Japan, iTunes Canada, Sony Connect, Rhapsody, eMusic, Napster, and Music.com quickly and affordably. I mean REALLY affordably, and you get to keep all the rights, and sell your albums in both individual song downloads and full album downloads.
