Since AI has become more widely known, there are no longer any opportunities for movies or commercials on their website.
None at all.
Not a single one this year.
Not their fault, though.

Distribution?
Since the day they hired an outside service provider (“The Source”) to do the technical stuff things went south:
  • 100% human songs that were rejected as "100% AI-generated"
  • Songs that took months instead of two weeks to appear on streaming services
  • One song (the one with the F-words in the title) never showed up anywhere because they demanded proof that I owned the release rights.
    Never had to do that with any song before.
    I sent them the individual tracks, screenshots of my DAW, social media accounts, and everything else they asked for.
    But the ticket was never processed...
  • I'm not the only one: Since the third quarter of 2025, they've been receiving five-figure numbers of new tickets every month.


So, after waiting for 8 weeks I lovingly called them "My Non-Distributor" and went somewhere else.
SongTradr or its successor, MassiveMusic?
I can only advise against them...
