OMD vs Ditto Music: What’s the Best Choice for Independent Artists in 2025?
Ditto Music is a familiar name in the UK music space. Known for its low-cost annual plans and playlist access, it’s a favourite among DIY musicians. But low-cost doesn’t always mean long-term growth. That’s where Oneofakind Music Distribution (OMD) steps forward.
Both platforms get your music online. But only one helps you move it forward.

Pricing and What You Get
At a glance, both services seem affordable. Ditto’s annual fees range from £19 to £89 depending on your chosen plan. OMD’s individual tier is a flat £19.99. No hidden fees. No bloated tiers.
But where OMD really stands apart is in what happens after you upload.
OMD’s Individual, label and partner tiers come with no upfront marketing costs. Instead, we run real campaigns and share in your success through a royalty split. No additional fees. No pay-to-pitch model. If we back your music, we go all in.
Campaign Reach and Playlist Access
Ditto adds artists to its in-house Spotify playlists. That’s a solid first step, but it ends there. No editorial pitching. No ad strategy. No deeper growth plan.
OMD’s campaign engine is more advanced. We manually pitch music for editorial placements across Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Tidal, Audiomack and Boomplay. We also have our own curated playlists across multiple platforms — not just Spotify.
From influencer outreach to ad campaigns and strategy planning, we invest in artists who are ready for more.
