IADistroKid getting sold isn’t the problem… it’s the warning.
If your whole career lives on platforms you don’t own, one deal can flip everything overnight.
Streams are rented. Algorithms are borrowed. Distributors can change at any time.
Real artists move different.
They know their agreements.
They have backup distribution ready.
They can move their catalog fast.
And most importantly… they own their audience.
Email. Phone numbers. Direct access.
That’s power.
Because when companies get acquired, you are not the priority. The system is.
So don’t panic. Position.
Save this. Share this. Tag an artist who needs to see it.
