Universal Signs Deal with Tunecore for Indie Artist Farm Team...

Ars Technica | Read Full Story >

According to the agreement, TuneCore will provide distribution portals for UMG‘s labels, while UMG will provide “marketing and upstreaming opportunities within the UMG Distribution system.” This includes a number of artist services, including licensing opportunities within Universal and professional audio mastering, as well as other “artist discovery” services. Musicians can take advantage of these offerings without handing over their rights or revenues as they would have in the past if they wanted to enter into an agreement with Universal.

Who the hell would want their revenue stream coming anywhere near the likes of A Major Label right now? They're just gonna keep it.

You can't get paid properly by those people with a team of lawyers and a full blown contract with all the trimmin's....You think they're gonna give a shit when you're asking for an audit through the Tunecore System?

Tah!
