A subscription fee is only part of the cost of managing releases. Artist capacity, store coverage, optional monetization and cancellation terms can change the practical result.

Put it into practice

Write down your required features and ask how each plan handles them. Keep a dated copy of the terms used for the comparison.

Put the decision into a release plan

Keep one catalogue record with artist names, versions, identifiers, rights and the intended release dates. Check the options available in your account before announcing destinations. Allow time to correct a rejected asset, and verify store links after delivery. For WBBT White-Label or Distributor API early access, ask sales for a tailored scope and quote rather than assuming fixed limits.

Your next step

Write down your required features and ask how each plan handles them. Keep a short record of the decision and revisit it after your next completed project.
