Ive been using this site since February(bc i wanted to distribute my music for free) and today i went to distribute an album thinking it was going to be free, and i see i have to pay $14. What? this site is supposed to free what happened:(?

This company is terrible. I had distributed songs with them and right from the start we had some issues with song titles and youtube playlisting. They had other artists names on my songs under my Shazam and it took weeks to resolve this issue. I thought everything was sorted but it wasn't. They said they couldn't monetize my music on Tik Tok but they some how put it on there. O.k Many months had passed my release had been in the stores no more problems. I have all my artist accounts up and running with the stores. like Spotify, Amazon, Apple and Deezer. I had no issues with the stores. but right before the 15th of the month when they were suppose to pay me for what ever streams i've had from what ever the period was. In this case it was for July and it said in my account i had $60 for that period. They locked my account on the 14th of the October the day before they were suppose to pay me for the streams i've had. So i contacted them to see what the issue was. I checked all of my artist accounts. They were all working fine and i could log in and see how many streams i've had for that period. There was no issue with any of the stores. I doubled checked to see if the company was the issue or whether there was a issue at the stores. but there wasn't any issue at the stores. the distrbutor emailed me and said this. "Upon review of the streaming activity on your release by Soundrop and/or our digital partners, it was determined that an excessive amount of streaming was being conducted from the same individual or computers. This is sometimes done by an individual to increase the visibility of their music. Unfortunately, this is also a violation of the terms of service of digital music providers as well as Soundrop's usage guidelines. As a result of this, Soundrop has decided to remove your releases from our service. Any funds which have been accrued from abusive streaming will be unavailable for a payout as they have been determined to be fraudulent." If this was true don't you think the stores would have done something about this? There is no issue with the stores and Soundrop is making this rubbish up and now they are saying they are not going to pay me even though they have recieved money that is meant for me. They will still recieve earnings from my music for August, September and October they have already stolen the money from July. They obviously are going to keep my money. They are stealing my money that was owed to me for my music. If this issue that they are abusing is real. Then why wasn't something done sooner? They have basically waited the maximum amount of time to make sure they can rob as much money from me as possible. It's october and they are stealing $60 from July they waited till october to do that. And they will still collect money from August, September and October. Which is robery on there behalf. This is obvious not the first time they have done this. As you can clearly see from the situation that they know what they are doing. Why would they wait till the 14th of october to lock my account and say they aren't going to pay me? That's becasuse they are trying to rob not only July's sales and streams they are trying to rob all 3 months there after of sales and Streaming. They are trying to rob as much money from me as possible. I have notified them that i will be taking legal action against them if they refuse to reach a resolution and pay me what i am owed and any for any cost's involved that it takes for me to resolve this issue. You can't just accuse something and then try play god and own the situation. When the only advantage in doing that is solely to benefit the business that is trying to own the situation. That is not how society works. I don't know what the money was from because they haven't sent out an statement with which stores have paid me for what plays etc and they didn't even tell me what streams they deemed to be abusive. This whole situation is just the most baltant form of robery from this distributor. DO NOT DISTRIBUTE MUSIC WITH THIS PLATFORM. THEY WON'T PAY YOU. THEY WILL LOCK YOUR ACCOUNT THE DAY BEFORE YOUR SUPPOSE TO BE PAID SO YOU HAVE NO WAY OF TRACING DOWN THE BUSINESS. AND THEY WILL ROB EVERY MONTH THERE AFTER. THEY ARE SCAM ARTISTS. IT'S VERY OBVIOUS WHAT ARE THEY ARE DOING. I will be persuing legal action against them. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY TO DISTRIBUTE YOUR MUSIC. THEY PROVIDE A FREE SERVICE FOR A REASON AND THAT'S SO THEY CAN ROB YOU.

As said below by real peapole, they are just thieves! block you under 20 box to keep your money...! Sound robbed!

A group of scammers , thats all i gotta say , those people who give good reviews are probably fake accounts they set up

as soon as you make more that 50 or 60 dollars they steal your money by making excuses and block your account , since i've been distributing music its one of the biggest scam i've ever went through a big bunch of rascals

Non becchi un qrattrino..se vuoi uscire non ti chiudono account per mesi con le scuse piu' stupide..e ovviamente..se il tuo nome artista risulta con loro diventa complicato pubblicare con altro distributore..praticamente devi ricominciare con un nuovo nome..roba da pazzi

Soundrop took about a month in which Distrokid took only a week to get my cover song into stores. Not only did Soundrop take long, but they also mixed my music with other bands to add that cherry on top. Do not distribute through Soundrop.

THIEVES!!! Worst distributer ever! They are gonna take down your releases just to take all your royalties!
