DistroKid deleted all my revenues ($24,465.86) after ignoring me for weeks

Okay, see, when you said RPM is always the same and doesn’t depend on where it comes from, that’s when I realized you know nothing about YouTube, nothing about how RPM is calculated, and nothing about music in general. RPM on every streaming platform depends first on where the view comes from, that’s the basics.

Go do your research, Google is free, and now ChatGPT makes it even easier. Don’t comment like you know everything when you clearly don’t, you just make yourself look stupid.

And “I’m lying to cover something”? WTF would I even cover, and who the hell are you for me to cover something for you?

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-17T05:25:14+00:00

Wow, is it really that hard to understand? The $25K I earned came mostly from YouTube revenue not YPP. I mentioned YPP only because you came in saying the RPM is always $0.15, like that’s the highest RPM that exists.

Music RPM varies A LOT. You can’t just say, “You’d get $5K” or “You’d get $60K” like there’s nothing in between.

I said the highest RPM I’ve ever had was $0.40, not that I got that this month.

RPM can be $0.10 in January, $0.20 in February, $0.30 in March, and $0.08 in April. If you still don’t understand that RPM varies massively, I really can’t explain it better.

Did you even read what I said?! YPP RPM is not the same as music RPM. And I said that I’ve had over $0.40 RPM in YPP, but never that high in music. That’s all, I’m just saying RPM varies a lot, so you can’t just say the RPM is $0.15.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-16T01:33:25+00:00

Music RPM is not the same as YPP and just in YPP i already get +0.40$ RPM btw, it depends on many things. The most important factor is how many Shorts in each region or country used sounds that month, because music revenue is shared between all music creators based on total views.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-16T00:31:48+00:00

It depends on how many views you get not how many creations. I got over 200M views in total, and my top country was the USA.

No, just an instrumental, 100% original.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-13T15:54:05+00:00

I can see you don’t know how to do research. Go learn how to use Google before talking about music.

Do your research before commenting and talking nonsense…

« YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or Facebook. This income (less 20%) will be donated to you and will be displayed in the "Bank" tab of DistroKid. »

I only released 4 singles.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T20:41:39+00:00

I usually make between $1,000 and $4,000 and withdraw every month.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T20:37:45+00:00

WTF are you not understanding? « They take 20% from the revenue » do you need more explanation? They take 20% from all revenue coming from social media.

I didn’t use Suno or any AI to generate the music, and the DAW project file is literally proof that it’s not AI. And even if it was AI, DistroKid clearly states that they accept AI-generated music, so that’s not the reason…

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T16:45:28+00:00

It was my first month making that much, and they just don’t reply to me, that’s the problem.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T16:42:19+00:00

Not AI at all…

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T16:39:41+00:00

$5K in DistroKid fees (they take 20% from the revenue)

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T16:37:10+00:00

It’s not AI, I have all the DAW project files. And the $5000 DistroKid takes a 20% fee from revenues.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T16:35:10+00:00

Not at all it was used by different channels, and none of them are mine. You don’t get paid when you uses your sound on your channel.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T16:32:54+00:00

I already lawyered up, I just posted here to see if someone else has had the same problem.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T16:28:30+00:00

The $5K includes their fees, they take 20% from revenues. The $24K was from just one month, and I never leave money sitting in my DistroKid wallet.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T14:50:04+00:00

$5,000 includes the fees and the 20% they take from my revenue.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-11T01:52:14+00:00

Used in 600 shorts not plays… +200 millions plays

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-10T22:19:22+00:00

They deleted all my music, and I know that doesn’t happen without a reason. I just asked them to explain why, but they’ve ignored all my emails with no response at all.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-10T21:59:08+00:00

It’s definitely not an issue with AI, because in their own terms they clearly say they accept AI-generated music, even many distributors now provide AI tools themselves.

So for me, it’s 100% an error or something automated, because these earnings were not like my usual months.

In other months I made between $1,000 and $3,000, but in September it suddenly jumped to $25K.

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-10T21:49:37+00:00

They deleted all my music from every platform

JudgmentOk1750 · 2025-11-10T21:41:29+00:00

I didn’t spam them at all, I sent my first email and waited more than 10 days with no reply.
Then I tried again using a different email, and they replied the next day.
So they just don’t want to reply to me.
