What Songs are Eligible for YouTube Content ID?If your release contains any audio (beats, loops, samples, video game sounds, other peoples' music...) that you didn't create yourself, it is unfortunately ineligible for YouTube Content ID. YouTube is really serious about this stuff. All of the following must be true for a release to be eligible: You created all of the sounds Your release does NOT contain beats, loops, sound effects, or other audio downloaded from sample libraries or other public sources. This includes sounds that are available for free from GarageBand, Ableton, Logic, Fruity Loops, etc. You will not allow other artists to remix your song(s), or use any of the sounds from your song(s) in their own songs. That's because if their remix gets uploaded to YouTube, Content ID may claim it as yours. Or if the remixer opts into Content ID, it may think your version is the same song, and claim it as theirs. It's all very complicated. Your release does NOT contain public domain recordings or songs. Your release does NOT contain sounds from video games, television, movies, etc. Your release does NOT contain any audio from other peoples' YouTube videos. You are the only person who will add this single to YouTube Content ID. Nobody else (band members, producer, etc.) will also try to add it to YouTube Content ID, because that causes a mess. You have NOT used another company, such as TuneCore or CD Baby, to submit this single to YouTube Content ID. That will cause a conflict, and a mess. If your release contains any of the categories listed above, your release(s) may longer be sent to YouTube (via Symphonic) in the future as it puts a risk to them of having all their assets and CMS suspended if they are found to have fraudulent content constantly submitted to YouTube CID.

My music was submitted to Content ID and I want it removed. How can I do this?Create a ticket and provide us the UPC/EAN you wish to have removed from Content ID. We will then ask Symphonic to remove the song recording assets from CID. We will then follow us letting you know that the release has been removed from YouTube CID.

How Can I Set a Custom Release Date and or Time?We support 'go live' times for releases so that they can live at the time YOU want them. We can also make a release have a country exclusive release date where it can go live in one country at any time and then the rest of world on the full release date. You can also make releases go live in multiple countries on one date and the rest on another. To get this set up, email us or create a ticket and supply the UPC/EAN and the following: Release Time and date (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS) Country Custom Release Date Examples: GB 2022-02-22 14:30:00 WW 2022-11-11 10:00:00 Follow the example correctly and our team will add this via the backend and send a metadata update or delivery depending if it's new or already distributed.

What Is An ISRC?The International Standard Recording Code (ISRC) is an international code that identifies each of the songs in your album or single, as if it were your ID. Once assigned to a song, you must use it whenever you publish that same song, for example, if it is published as a single and is later part of an album or EP. If you don’t have ISRC’s for your songs, Terrabyte will assign you a code for each one.
-
Required FieldsIn order for your release to be approved, you must add the following to your releases: Composer Lyricist/Songwriter (only required if song has vocals) The reason these are required is because stores now request that everyone who participated on a song is credited and that they are acknowledged. If your release doesn't contain any of the listed above, it will not be approved and we have its status set as "Error".

Can I choose which stores and streaming services I want to distribute my music to?Yes, but by default we will send your release to all our Distribution partners.

Can I remove my release from individual stores?Yes! Create a support ticket with the UPC/EAN (or Release ID) and state the stores you want the release removed from. Our content Ops team will then send the takedown to the stores you specified and they will be removed from the service within 1-2 weeks.
-
My release is on the wrong artist page!Don’t worry! We can help you get your content mapped correctly. Unfortunately, releases can sometimes land on the wrong profile. If artist names are similar or match to others, there’s a chance your music will land on someone else’s artist page on stores. Release location is dictated by the stores, but we can request that it is either moved to the correct artist page, or a new artist page, once your release is available on the stores. Contact our support team, provide them the incorrect page, and then state the correct page. We will then add the correct page in our back-end and submit a metadata update to the services. **NOTE** Soon you'll be able to add your artists link to your future releases but this is expected sometime in 2023.

How Long will it take for my music to appear on stores and services?Your music will be available on more than 100 broadcasting and sales platforms within 21 days of our sending the content. Some services will release it in 24 hours, others in 72 hours, others need a week and the smallest will take the full 21 days. Unfortunately, it does not depend on us, but on the processes of each of these services. What we do assure you is that in 21 days there will be no part of the world where your music cannot be heard, as long as that part of the world has an internet connection, of course. Our recommendation is that you plan your releases with plenty of time and have your product ready in the system at least two weeks before the launch date indicated on the product. Without haste things always run much more smoothly.

Can we release a cover song?Yes! Just ensure to credit the songwriters with the composer and or lyricist role. We will handle the rest! Just note, if you release a cover song we will take 20% whether or not you're free or paid plan, as we need to cover the mechanical license.

How do I switch to Terrabyte Music from another music distributor like TuneCore, CDBaby or DistroKid?It’s very easy to switch to Terrabyte from another music distributor. In order to switch to Terrabyte from another distributor, you will need to contact your current distributor and request that they take your content down from stores and streaming services. Once they have provided you with a date, your music will be removed – you can then upload your music through Terrabyte Music and we’ll send it out to stores and streaming services. When uploading make sure you use the same ISRC and UPCs as you did with your old distributor as this will help to keep your statistics and playlists within streaming services.

What is an EAN/UPC?The European Article Number (EAN) is the code needed to market your product. The digital equivalent of the barcode of a physical product.
