About Make & Publish Music

Are you a musician? If so, platforms like Spotify, YouTube, and Tidal will often pay you for every stream you generate. Rates vary among platforms. The streaming platform that pays the most is Tidal with $0.013 per stream. If you’ve got 1M streams, that’s $13,000 for your song.

You’ll need to subscribe to an online distribution network because they’ll do the work of distributing your music to streaming platforms and collecting the royalties for you. It’s a solid way of monetizing your passion for music, but the real money tends to be made from live concerts these days.
