About this publication

Recommendation standards

Recommendations should explain the product, its intended use and the evidence behind the guidance.

How recommendations are presented

Our Played.fm review explains features and links to the relevant product documentation. Consider how the described workflow fits your source files, intended use and delivery requirements.

Make an informed choice

Check current pricing, supported formats, processing policies and terms directly with the provider. A recommendation is not a promise of a particular audio result, rights ownership, earnings or platform acceptance.

Editorial accountability

Factual statements should have a clear source. Product descriptions, suggested workflows and documented observations should remain distinguishable. Our editorial standards explain the basis of our guidance, and the contact page describes how to raise a correction.
