Put up a vlog about the reason So Far is now off of google play.
here’s the email in text again:
Hello,
We were recently contacted by one of our digital partners (Google) regarding your content.
After looking at the streaming statistics associated with your albums, they have determined that an excessive
amount of streaming was being done from the same individual or computers. This is sometimes done by artists or fans to increase the visibility of their music. Unfortunately this is also a violation of the terms of service of most digital music distributors.
As a result of this, Google has decided to remove your content from their service.
Your content will remain for sale on the CD Baby website and will still be available with any of our other digital partners you are currently
using for distribution.
Please note - If we receive other complaints of streaming abuse from other partners, your content may be removed entirely, and any funds which have been accrued from abusive streaming will be unavailable for payout.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks!
Kevin @ CD Baby
And another after i submitted a support ticket to Google:
Hello This message is to inform you that we are investigating suspicious and fraudulent activity associated with your Google Play artist hub account. Your account has been suspended for severe or repeat violation of the Google Play Content Policy or Terms of Service. -Google Play Artist Support
I’m hoping i can find some way to have a say in this, as the communications up to now have been between Google and CD Baby, who have kept me out of the loop. I’ll keep you guys updated.
Until then, please don’t loop my songs on streaming services. There are ways to purchase my music on Bandcamp and iTunes if you wish to listen to songs on repeat. Thanks.
