Before deciding on where to distribute your music, it can be helpful to make a list of Pros and Cons. Each type of distribution has their own benefits and cons. For example, many true DIY distributors don't take a % - just an upfront fee. Meaning, if your music actually generates music, you don't need to worry about giving away a % to someone else (which can be meaningful depending on how much revenue is being generated). A con is that you don't receive the same level of direct support and service. So if you have metadata or release issues, you're at the mercy of the customer support ticket process. The benefits of a distribution deal can include 1 on 1 human support when those metadata issues arise and potential marketing support. The downside is you're giving away a % of the song while largely being responsible for working it / promoting it yourself. There's no right or wrong...each has their own value that makes sense for different people. It's just important to do your research!
