The new Physical Music Solutions are centred around an on-demand CD production service, which enables labels to fulfil orders from major online and mail order outlets with minimal investment required. Finished CD products, including a full range of artwork and packaging options, are produced on a bespoke basis when customer orders are made, allowing finetunes’ labels to offer their entire catalogues as high quality physical products for sale in key distribution territories including Germany, the UK and North America.
In addition to the new on-demand offering, finetunes now also offers in-house replication services, enabling labels to press up short runs of CDs and sell physical items at gigs, or via their own websites. Furthermore, labels will also be able to offer fans on-demand ‘live bootleg’ recordings, enabling fans to have a copy of ‘their’ unique show experience delivered direct to their doors.
In a world where physical music products remain hugely important for musicians and fans alike, finetunes Physical Music Services can help effectively service this demand, but with a greatly reduced investment required by labels. By intelligently combining digital and physical business models, finetunes can help labels to enable the monetisation of back catalogues on an international basis, whilst minimising costs associated with producing and storing CD stock.

Entering new physical distribution markets and extending international fan communities has become practically possible and worthwhile again.
