Guest Post by **Bobby Owsinski** on [Music 3.0](http://music3point0.blogspot.com/2015/09/dart-music-specializes-in-classical.html?ref=hypebot.com)Classical music hasn't fared well in the digital music age, but a new service called **[Dart Music](http://dartmusic.com/?ref=hypebot.com)** aims to change all of that.Dart is like a **TuneCore** for classical music, with an annual rate of $20 for a single musical piece, $40 for an album, and a 100% royalty payout to the copyright owner. The service then submits the music to online retailers like **iTunes, Spotify, Google Play** and others.The difference between Dart and other aggregators is that it pays special attention to metadata. While most other aggregators include metadata that identifies the artist, song and label at a bare minimum, entering other metadata can be a tedious chore.Classical music requires additional metadata like conductor, ensemble, and performer, since there is so much more featured collaboration in a classical piece that needs to be identified. This is where Dart is said to shine.While incomplete metadata is an industry-wide problem, Dart is trying to solve the problem as it specifically focuses on this market niche.
