About CD Baby

Music distribution is about getting your songs in front of the most people possible. That’s why over a million independent creators worldwide use CD Baby to release their music across all major digital streaming platforms like Spotify, TikTok and YouTube Music. CD Baby makes releasing music affordable— all our distribution services for just a one-time fee of $9.99 per release, whether it's a single or an album. And whenever we add a new digital retail partner, your music catalogue will be delivered to them free of charge. Many music distributors claim to offer free music distribution but charge additional per-retailer fees, annual subs fees, cancellation fees, and all kinds of hidden add-ons and upsells for additional services. CD Baby has no recurring subscription fees, so you don’t have to worry about us ever taking down your music if you miss a payment (there are no payments!) CD Baby also offers Mechanical and Digital Performance Royalty collection and Sync Licensing as part of our Boost service, as well as our Stages program for emerging artists. Stages offers a suite of valuable artist services, moving with you as your artist career advances and unlocking new opportunities such as expedited release inspection, DSP playlist pitching, and more.

CDBaby used to be good when you could… CDBaby used to be good when you could reach a live person, but like so many of these online companies they are all about getting your money and letting bots do the work. Well, the bots cannot fix the issue I am having and I have found absolutely no way to get a person to help even by email so I am stuck while they collect millions and I get trickles of pennies per song. I just released more music, paid for all of their services and they are failing to live up to what they say they can do like create a YouTube Artist Channel. If a customer has an issue and there is a glitch and you've already paid them as your distributor you are screwed. I am beyond frustrated right now with the ghosting. Since they refuse to make a way to fulfill their proclaimed services there should be a class action lawsuit against them. I hate to write this, but you know there needs to be accountability with these greedy online bot wielding ghosting companies!

My experience with CD Baby has been perfect My experience with CD Baby has been perfect. I made a couple of "mistakes" in setting up my account and there was no negative vibe whatsoever. My emails were addressed, answered promptly and the issue resolved. The Hearnow page is beautiful and easy to edit just the way you would want it. The dash board is very precise too, this is well thought out and one more thing........ it is not a requirement that you have a mobile phone to have an account which I find refreshing. Seems to me CD Baby's only requirement is to simply love music.

Total scammers Total scammers. Don’t expect to earn any money and fully expect them to remove your music from all platforms with no explanation. Absolute scammer!

My music suddenly got removed from all… My music suddenly got removed from all social media sites like YouTube and Meta without any explanation and they have been zero help. They have been replying with the same automated reply email that has nothing to do with my music and not answering any of my questions. My music was 100% original composition on solo piano. I am considering removing all my music from CDBaby and look for a new distributor. Any recommendations?

They will remove your music without any… They will remove your music without any consideration if you have your songs played by playlists without your consent. They willl not try to fix your situation what’s so ever nor will they give you a refund. Join even biz r bandcamp. These platforms will no longer be relevant in 2025. Mark my works
