Distributing on YouTube Music

YouTube Music is a music streaming service from Google that replaces their old service, Google Play Music. YouTube Music users have access to official songs, albums, playlists, music videos and much more through the app or web player.

YouTube music is integrated with the wider YouTube platform meaning artists can easily expand their music’s reach through Art Tracks. An Art Track is an automatically generated YouTube video version of a track that consists of the sound recording and the album art.

How to Make Money Through Youtube Music

By uploading your music to YouTube Music, you will receive income through two separate revenue streams.

Subscriptions

In-app streams from subscribers to the YouTube Music Premium service will be monetized per play and you will receive a percentage of the total subscription revenue based upon how many times your music was streamed. This rate may vary depending on the listening time and territory of the user.

Ad Revenue

For non-subscription in-app streams and video streams through Art Tracks, the amount you receive will depend on whether an ad is placed on your stream or video. Therefore, you may receive unmonetized and monetized plays for the same song in the same territory.
