I Lost All My Songs After DistroKid Removed Them Without Warning

April 2, 2024 10:46 PM154

I trusted DistroKid to distribute my music professionally, but they let me down in the worst way possible. Every single one of my releases was suddenly and completely removed from all platforms—without any notice, without any explanation. I wasn’t warned, I wasn’t contacted, and I certainly wasn’t refunded. The money is one thing, but the hours of creativity, effort, and dedication I poured into each track? All gone in an instant.

I opened a support ticket hoping for clarification or at least acknowledgment. Nothing. No transparency, no accountability. Just silence. I feel robbed not only of my work but of my trust in a service I paid for in good faith.

If you’re thinking about using DistroKid, I urge you to reconsider. Their lack of communication and the abrupt removal of all my content was deeply disheartening. DistroKid, you owe your users answers and you owe me my work back.
