![]() ![]() It’s nice that they provide this feature and if you don’t know what it is, it’s just a landing page that has links to all the streaming services your song is on (Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play, Deezer, etc).īut it looks so ugly, there’s no way any artist should be sharing that with their fans. This doesn’t make me feel more human! Can’t you just include this for free? And what happens when Distrokid dies? Song Landing Page I mean, every song we make is trying to bring some god damn humanity into this cold wired world, and you’re doing this to me: I know trying to upsell your customers is the snazzy thing to do in eCommerce, but it’s not cool and doesn’t feel human.Įspecially when all your customers are musicians: our whole thing is trying to feel more human! ![]() This half-ass job, makes me feel like they’re going to run to the Caymans with my $48 in streaming revenue! Upselling Me into Oblivion I wish DistroKid either doubles down on bad design or just does the web 2.0 style that’s been in vogue for the last 10 years (*cough* just copy Tunecore).
