DistroKid Officially Launches DistroVid Service Music Video Distributor

DistroKid, the world's leading distributor of independent music, announced today that it has launched DistroVid, a groundbreaking new music video distribution service that enables any artist to upload an unlimited number of music videos to leading digital service providers for one low price.

DistroVid's launch partners include Apple Music, Amazon Music, TIDAL and Vevo, with more digital service providers expected to come online in the coming months. DistroKid is the first music distributor to offer this kind of deal to artists-unlimited music video uploads for one low price. As always, DistroKid pays artists 100% of their earnings.

"Many streaming services have begun playing music videos in addition to audio-but until now there hasn't been a great way for independent artists to get their music videos into these services," said Philip Kaplan, Founder and CEO of DistroKid. "Our new music video service, called DistroVid, makes it super easy & affordable for independent artists to get their music videos everywhere."

DistroVid members can upload unlimited music videos. Membership costs $99 per year. Competitors charge close to that per video. And as always with DistroKid, the service is easy to use, blazingly-fast and artists keep 100% of their earnings. More information about the new service can be found at distrovid.com.

"We're thrilled to partner with DistroVid to provide a direct pipeline to Vevo for independent artists," says Jordan Glickson, Vice President, Music & Talent, Vevo.

"Now more than ever, music videos are an essential part of an artist's release strategy, providing a valuable promotional opportunity to connect with fans on a deeper level. We're so excited to assist in building an additional bridge for artists to their fans and to bring their music videos to more screens, and more music fans, across the globe."

"At TIDAL, we value bringing fans and artists closer together, and video is an integral part of building a connection," said Dan Murphy, SVP of Partnerships & Business Development at TIDAL. "With DistroVid, we're excited to be giving independent artists a more simplified way to share video content with their fans on TIDAL."

"I've always stressed the importance of music videos to every artist we've worked with-videos really help give potential fans a way to connect with both the artist and their music," said DJ Hoppa, an artist and also founder of label Broken Complex.

"Up until now it's been expensive and difficult to add my music videos to streaming services, which means our fans are forced to bounce between different apps to see them. DistroVid changes all that. The new tool makes it easy and affordable to upload as many videos as I want, then send them directly to where fans are already listening to my music. DistroVid is going to be a game-changer for my independent label and for independent artists everywhere."
