Description

The iTunes Store is Apple's digital music store. Listeners buy a song or an album once and keep the file, instead of paying for a monthly streaming plan.

Zen Music delivers releases to iTunes so that fans who prefer to own music can buy it. Each sale is reported in the artist's royalty statement, alongside streaming income.
