I’ve Taken My Release Down Because It Had a Mistake, but Now I Am Unable to Re-Deliver It

If you’ve taken down your release due to an error, you may find that you cannot re-deliver it under the same catalog number or UPC. This limitation is in place to ensure the integrity of the cataloging system, so it's crucial to be certain before issuing a takedown request.

What to Do Next

To address this issue effectively, you can follow these steps:

  1. Use the “Copy Release” Function:

    • In your system, locate the “Copy Release” option. This feature allows you to duplicate your release while assigning a new catalog number and UPC.
    • The benefit of this approach is that it retains all other metadata, including ISRCs, making it easier to maintain the integrity of your release information.
  2. Make Necessary Corrections:

    • After duplicating the release, review the details and make any necessary corrections. This could include updating track information, artwork, or metadata.
  3. Re-Deliver the Updated Release:

    • Once you’ve made the necessary changes, finalize the new version and proceed to re-deliver it to the stores.

By following these steps, you can successfully navigate the process of correcting and re-delivering your release. For more detailed instructions, refer to our user guide. Thank you for your understanding, and we appreciate your commitment to ensuring your music is accurately represented!
