COMING SOON – we are currently working on this functionality.

You can already set a sale price when you add/edit your music.

Members will soon be able to purchase tracks for download, until then tracks are not available for download and are stored in an encrypted format.

By signing up to the Go To Hear platform you’re granting Go To Hear and its members a non-exclusive direct licence to play and promote your tracks.
This license allows our members to market & promote you and your music.

IMPORTANT: Our unique security and revenue model prevents anyone from 'giving away' your music or cutting you out of the deal.

Ultimately our platform's aim is to protect your music, yet at the same time harness your fan base, widen your audience, and help you earn more money from what you are really good at... making music.

More details of our Terms and Conditions can be found here

We are currently considering the functionality to allow you to set a streaming price when you add your music.

We have other key methods (far beyond pay-per-stream) for artists to earn more money, hence this is an issue where we are currently inviting debate/input from you - our members.

We think there is a lot of evidence that pay-per-stream has not been a positive experience for musicians and in many cases devalues their music and actually reduces their potential income.

Why not contact us via one of our facebook groups and join in this debate.

The Go To Hear platform has in-built security which means that tracks can only be played on Go To Hear unless you sell them as a download. • Members can only listen to a track or read your blog by visiting the Go To Hear platform. Membrs/non-members who try to copy your content/music to use elsewhere will be stopped by our encrypted gateway protection code. This means your music can only be shared by using our share creation technology - the links created by this mean anyone who clicks on a link to your content anywhere on the web will be brought back to you on Go To Hear. If they aren't already a member then when they sign up as a platform member they will be attributed to you as one of your affiliates – so it's you make the money not people attempting to illegally copy and use your music! This technology is designed specifically to protect artists and other content creators to ensure that the people who create the content always get the reward for their work - not some pirate.

PENDING – you can’t buy music just yet, but that functionality is coming soon.
