Independent digital music distributor RouteNote has announced that it has more than half a million users globally.
The milestone is particularly impressive since, unlike many of its competitors like CD Baby, Tunecore, and The Orchard, RouteNote is not part of a larger music group.
“RouteNote’s CEO, Steven Finch, ran with an idea that he thought capable of transforming the music industry for small artists and, joined by RouteNote COO James Bennett, they took to making it happen,” reads a celebratory blog post. “Just two men in Cornwall with a dream to give independent artists the same opportunities as major label artists to get heard in the new digital economy of music. 13 years later we are an ever-growing team of more than 70 people and we’re celebrating 500,000 users.”
