TuneCore Launches Physical Distribution Program

Mar 4, 2008 3:33 PM

TuneCore is set to launch a new pilot program on April 1 offering physical distribution, extending its ability to help DIY musicians and established names alike. Musicians will now be able to sell their music worldwide, via the digital download stores and physically.

 

For all participating customers, TuneCore will provide a flash-based mini-store that can be posted on the artist's Website, blog or other places online. Customers will pay a flat up-front fee for the first year of distribution, with TuneCore preparing an online store to specific artist requests; the artist can sell their album for any price they like, fans place orders through the mini-store and the orders are processed and shipped by TuneCore.

 

One-hundred percent of sales go directly to the customers TuneCore account, where it can be withdrawn 24/7, just like digital sales. You'll be in good company, too, as the likes of Keith Richards, Bjork, Jay-Z and Public Enemy are among the thousands using the TuneCore digital download stores. TuneCore customers reportedly earned themselves $718,398 in December of 2007. Not bad.
