Exploitation and ****
Exploitation is just the tip of the iceberg with them. When I originally joined them, I was told that I am linked to the exchange rate. I accepted it. When the dollar went up, I paid more, when the dollar went down, they took the same as the previous month. All good as long as it goes their way. I have an artist-pro account with them. Busy with an international Album where I need to register each track before the Album release. This is merely because I a, not signed with the label so will just be using their "Support structure" but the rest is still up to me. Fortunate (or so I thought) I pay for Unlimited Distribution with soundcloud. All tracks (11 of them) were remade into acoustic versions and then sent to soundcloud for distribution. (All forms (per track) completed exactly the same way). 4 was accepted. The rest all being rejected again and again. I need to pause here and explain. When you take a picture of a stage with artists on it, the artists are upright, but the line of the stage will be at an angle since that was your position of taking the photo. Soundcloud rejected it and said "Do not rotate borders and or cut images. My original was a 1024x1024 image I made bigger to get to their 3000 x 3000 Album image. Thus, nothing was cut anywhere. The others (well most was rejected on "You may not request an acoustic version if you do not own the original". I have the originals in my Soundcloud list e.g "Better days" and the new one is called "Better days - acoustic". Thy rejected all of them 4 times already because of the excuse I may not add a version if I do not have the original. Take note these are Compositions I own with 100% rights and registered originally through Soundcloud. Unfortunately, as per "otto" (Their AI) I now need to prove "via letters and bank statements" that the tracks belong to me even though the originals are CLEARLY VISIBLE in my archive on their platform. I eventually got Otto to give me a ticket number. Have received a ticket number in E-mail as well and after that 0 response. From anyone. Pretty much "give us your money but you will need to wait till next month on our promise of unlimited distribution because we are busy now". I am still waiting for nany thing other than an Emailed ticket number from them.
