Lonnie Knows Everything

Guys,

Over the last couple of years I’ve blogged about my experiences with TuneCore which have been for the most part, very positive. The guys there have been extremely responsive.  Then along came WaTunes offering similar services for free, and it’s hard to resist free isn’t it?  The service was never very easy to use but given what they were offering you it was not something to complain about.

As time went on the interface gradually improved and I worked directly with Kevin Rivers many times. Not many company owners will directly interface with their users.

I posted a pretty positive review of the service and encouraged people to give them a shot.. and that is where my apology comes in.  I have been working n new material off and on for some time now and when I went to make a release last night I found out that the WaTunes guys have bowed out of digital distribution which is very unfortunate, to say the least.  It’s certainly put me in a bind.

With that in mind I needed to find an alternative, and it looks as though TuneCore’s rates have gone up since I left them for WaTunes.

I don’t know of any other “free” options out there, but one company that has been around longer than all of them and offers the ability now to upload your content is Cd Baby.. $35.00 per album and $9.00 per single.

I need to do some further research.. Anyone have any other suggestions?
