CD Baby / YouTube

Yup, my albums are the same - split into singles on youtube. CD Baby does this as part of their "distribute everywhere" option.

If you don't want that to happen, you need to uncheck that box when uploading the album. I don't know if it's possible to undo after the fact.

WOW! That's weird. I don't think they did that with any of my tunes. At least, I can't find any.

Maybe you didn't tick the right box... or maybe CD Baby don't like you much?

It's been a long time, but I always clicked "Sell everything everywhere" or whatever it was. Maybe they listened to my stuff at the time and said "Don't bother".

I have a special relationship with them. I give them complete control and they never pay me any money ever, as I set the payment threshold too high. You don't get THAT sort of service unless you're special...

LOL! I have mine set at $20. I just got money yesterday....for the first time in about a year.

Interesting. DistroKid uses the exact same format when they upload generic videos for your songs.
(Our vocalist emailed me to express surprise that someone had already ripped off our songs to upload to YT when he found it!)

I've found my shit on Russian torrrent sites.

I found my CD on YT split into singles. Error when I open any of them. Maybe because I paid the original $39 but never anything to CD Baby after that.

I'm putting this here because I can't think of where else to put it...


And probably on the right hand side you'll spot a few others.

I took the channel link aboce the description and it took me to some VHS a Capella band.
A Capella without audio I might ad.
Have you been playing around David?

Well done David, the results of clicking wouldn't be pretty.
