DSP metadata that affects discovery and pitching
24 minFoundationalFree
Stores ingest a lot of metadata; not every field changes who hears your song, but sloppy fields hurt pitching, search, and fan trust. This lesson separates “must be perfect” from “nice to optimize” so you don’t thrash uploads at midnight.
