    DistroKid are in 200 law cases as I was told by a Spotify Worker. You can tell that the only thing Distrokid want is money, they charge for nearly everything and they also don't have an option to confirm a buy, as soon as you press buy, it buys.

    I have one album called "Action" on Ditto and I'm happy with their service. I just got my first payout within an hour after pressing the payout button. Although maybe I haven't had as much streams (just over 100k in 2 months) as you to get flagged but I haven't had any issues with Ditto this far at least. Sorry that you have had a bad experience with them, maybe I've been lucky. Thanks for sharing your experiences though

    Thanks for your life saving information. I was just getting started and found it very nice for the add revenues for 39$ year extra to the 20 Bucks ...But thank you and I won't take ditto music. Your honest review saved me from damage!

    How many streams did they flag you at? My releases have alot of streams so I’m just wondering. Are you sure your promoter wasn’t using bots without your knowledge?

    I've just had my track removed from tunecore for the same thing.
    My question is when I change distributors to re-release the same track.
    1: can i start with a new ISRC code or do i have to use the previous ISRC code and my second question.
    2: can i still keep my apple and Spotify profiles that i got through tunecore or do i have to start all again because I'm going with a new distributor.
    Any feedback will be very much appreciated.
    Thank you
    Kind regards
    Joe

      well, i'm through the same thing, i was using AMUSE and they SUCK, they literally did exactly the same thing as the guy of the video. Accused me of fake streams and etc. Now I'm trying to search a new one.. maybe i go to LANDR. so, your questions... You MUST use the same ISRC, just because your ISRC is the identity of your track, right? When? so, when you tracks got takedown from the distribuitor. and yes you can keep your profile, you just have to put the exact same profile you have to the next distribuitor. When you upload a song, the distribuitor always asks "which profile?" so you just copy the link from your artist page. peace.

    The last thing you want to do is signed to ditto music because it's for life. if u tell them to take your song down lol they never do. they will tell u they did only to realise that they still have your song assigned on all dsp years later constantly renewing it.

    Ditto is a Scam . I lost $900 in Royalties that they stolen. They didn't lock me out. they kept my account open which mostly they close it if you receive fake streams. They said i had 1.2 million fake streams on months that i never carried out any promotion on.

    Ditto has been fine for me and I have over 25 releases with them. Very little traffic so have yet to reach a level where you say this might happen, but am pretty doubtful TBH. They’ve been very helpful all along.
