WaTunes – Getting Better and Better with Amazon partnership!
by Lonnie on Jul.31, 2009, under Uncategorized
I’ve written about WaTunes before back when I was evaluating their free service as an alternative to TuneCore, After spending some time using the service, and after having been with TuneCore since 2007, I decided to write up a comparison of the two services .. so check that out if you’re not familiar with either.
Recently the guys over at WaTunes added AmazonMP3 to the list of stores you get your music included in as part of their VIP offering, which is minimal in price especially when you consider the competiton .. This doesn’t mean that the “free” users are out in the cold, you have the option to opt-in for a $10 fee per album to get your content in Amazon.
But wait .. there’s more!
In addition to AmazonMP3, it seems the WaTunes guys have worked with amazon to offer you the ability to sell physical cd’s via their “On Demand” service .. which is included free for VIP users, and as part of the $10 “opt-in” fee that you pay for AmazonMP3 ..
So this cool up and coming distribution channel just got cooler in my opinion!
If you’d like to read WaTunes’ news article on this, head on over here!
Ps. Other than the fact I’m a user of both TuneCore and WaTunes music services, I’m not otherwise affiliated with either.

Hey Lonnie,
Thank you for the mention. We’re always coming up with new ways to level the playing field of distribution. With this huge development we’re able to take aim to provide new platforms of music delivery while once again driving down the cost for all music artists and record labels across the globe.
As always, let me know if you need anything at all regarding WaTunes. :)
