TuneCore distribution review

TuneCore uses a per-release model ($29.99/year) with 150+ platforms and 1-3 days delivery.

Best reasons to consider TuneCore

  • Predictable annual cost
  • No ongoing streaming royalty commission in the base model
  • Broad DSP coverage
  • Reasonably fast delivery window
  • Strong PitchPlus score in the current dataset

Watch before choosing TuneCore

  • Still needs comparison against your release frequency and royalty collection setup

Similar choices by pricing model and score. Shortlist two or three, then estimate royalties with your own stream volume.

After you distribute

TuneCore gets your song onto Spotify. It doesn't get it heard.

Distribution is the delivery truck, not the audience. Once TuneCore has your release live, the next job is getting Spotify to understand the track and route it to the right listeners. That is the part PitchPlus does: it understands your actual song, then does the work.
