Apple Music Stream Farm (2025)

I've built my own, runs on Spotify, YouTube and can easy be adapted to run on Amazon Music, Tidal or Napster.
Any chance it could be exported to Android? I’ve got a farm with 20 devices — I know it’s easier on PC, but with the number of phones I have, I could run way more accounts.
 
Hey, wanted to chip in and say that this really does work but as Code Noir mentioned only with the right strategy and good long term plan. I started out very slow with phones then I moved to hybrid approach with automation of the Spotify web UI with playwright. Now I have 140 tracks released with multiple artists and I started getting some nice payouts recently without any warnings from Spotify or DistroKid.

Just starting to encounter some issues in terms on how to scale further without raising suspicion because I don't think it's that easy as others try to suggest here.
you only use browser?
 
but what do you need to run a bot with apple devices? need a mac os ?
 
Bonjour les gars, si vous voulez, nous pouvons nous entraider avec ce genre de chose. J'ai 50 téléphones en marche et c'est 15 000 $ par mois.
Ce serait un plaisir que vous téléportiez vos contributions

64,000 monthly streams on platforms below ⬇️



  • Spotify = £174.08
  • Apple = £345.6
  • Amazon = £218.11
  • YouTube = £376.32
  • Deezer = £287.74
  • Pandora = £68.1
  • Tidal = £448.51
  • Napster = £861.18


4x Devices Streaming My Music 24/7

Individual Subscriptions for each device to make it look more legit,

So At least I am giving back to Apple in some way, that’s £10.99 per month per device. Thats just under £45 for the month to run 4 bots that stream my music 24/7 on Apple Music.



Each iPad cost me £26 -£28 from CEX my local game shop that sells and buys second hand games, consoles, iPads, phones etc. I went for the iPad Air (First Generation) reason that being is the battery life is excellent charge once a week and it holds on for 7+ days, so cheap electricity to run the farm.



So we’ve established that each bot is going to cost just under £40 to get started. Thats the cost for the device and 1 month individual plan for Apple Music. In most cases you will receive a free trial, for 1 - 3 months, new subscribers usually but ways you can get round it for unlimited cost free subscription, but for now we are going to pay our bots subscriptions. We want them to look as real as possible, if not you could risk your whole farm being blacklisted, blocked, none of which has ever happened to me, so fingers crossed we are all good.



So how much can we make from each bot? Each bot roughly streams around 15,000 - 16,000 streams per month. So 4 devices at 16,000 streams each, that’s 64,000 streams per month.

But 16,000 streams = £86.81



So remember our start up costs just shy of £40. Well the first month that bot runs 24/7 streaming my music it will make £86.81 that’s x 2 on our initial start up cost, so now you rinse and repeat this process. It’s as simple as that. Don’t make it difficult when it doesn’t have to be, but also take note, for this to work successfully in the way that it won’t get flagged, or ever look suspicious, you need a minimum of 500 songs distributed to all platforms. It doesn’t matter what music this is; preferably one that has a decent royalty rate, and it doesn’t matter how long you uploaded the music or the time it was released over.



One more thing, Distrokid, I pay £89.99 per year to distribute me and 4 x more artists to every platform, this is called the Label Plan, but you can do everything explained above on the £19.99 per year plan for 1x artist, being you.



You can make serious and I mean serious money with this method, if you could build your farm to 1 million streams per month, which is roughly around 64 devices needed at £28 per device and £10.99 per subscription, you could do 1 million streams per month… that’s a massive £5,500 extra per month for doing the work once and once only. And I literally mean doing the work once, the only thing you repeat In this process is buying of more devices.. so you are literally in control of how much you earn. No one has talked about this, whether the labels do this I don’t know. But I have proof of my last years royalties that this method works and it’s literally bang on the dollar that it estimated using the streaming calculator, the 2025 updated version.



Farm A (Apple Music)



  • iPhone 5s
  • iPhone 5s
  • iPad Air (1st Generation) 64GB
  • iPad Air (1st Generation) 64GB


= a total of 64,000 streams per month

with farm apple with goals to achieve 1 million streams per month, for now my current goal is 100,000 streams per month. The reason I chose 100,000 stream mark is because that’s what I’ve streamed over the course of a whole year with 1 device just to see if this really works; having to wait 3 months in delay of distribution services paying the money. So this isn’t something I’ve just pulled out of a hat, I’ve worked and watched the numbers and the back end of it over a year. Which this year I took the leap and went 4 devices in, with goals to reach 10 devices by the end of 2025.. that way my stream portfolio is showing growth year upon year.





Farm B (YouTube Music)



  • iPad Air (1st Generation) 64GB

£560 Start up just in the device cost, then 20x Individual Plans at £10.99 each. And this will be a monthly cost for how ever long you keep your farm running. So you are spending money to make way more money, but the method is unique, only a few percent of people are talking about it and in most case scenarios it’s outdated information of At least 4 years. Nothing current on the market as of 2025.



Each platform pays different rates per stream than others. Below is the amount of streams needed to make £100 from each individual platform.



To make £100 per month from Spotify you need a minimum of 36,765 streams.



To make £100 per month from Apple you need a minimum of 18,519 streams.



The difference in stream count but for the same £100…



To make £100 per month from Amazon you need a minimum of 29,343 streams.



To make £100 per month from YouTube you need a minimum of 17,007 streams.



To make £100 per month from Deezer you need a minimum of 22,242 streams.



To make £100 per month from Pandora you need a minimum of 93,985 streams.



To make £100 per month from Tidal you need a minimum of 14,269 streams.



And finally to make £100 per month from Napster you need a minimum of 7,432 streams.

And one more thing, i came into this with knowledge as a producer, the 500 songs i created and uploaded was done with an app for iPhone called SongGen. Slept on app, £9.99 for a month, 250+ exports, can’t use without paying, so I got high few nights, some speed, and I pumped out 500 songs with cover art in about 1 week, I have atleast 10 beats from the 500 that have already earned $20+ literally paid the subscription over 10x
Fantastic information. Thank you!
I really want to try it with 4 devices for small passive income. I am hobby producer, so I can produce 500 tracks in few days using ChatGPT and suno Ai. Just one problem occurs, I am living in Thailand and GPT told me,
To earn $100, you’d need around 45,000 streams from Thai IPs, versus ~18,500 from a U.S. IP.

what would be the best solution for me? One seperate vpn account connected to each SIM card for each device or what should I do?




only ~$0.0022 USD

From what I know, AI music ain’t hitting like before.

the ip is important to match where the account is created, but the royalties are calculated based on what regional price the account has, ex: the spotify single premium sub cost about 10usd in the US but probably (idk exactly) 2-3usd in thai, thats why thai streams pays less than US streams

So I need buy proxies unlimited what is very expensive. Else there is barely profit in Thailand. What would you do in my situation?
 
Dang thanks for the post. I was thinking about this for a while, and the day I came back to the forums in like 4 months I see this post haha gonna try and set something up and test it =)

does the songs need lyrics or can it just be chill songs to do work or whatever (like all the anime girls doing HW songs on youtube)

It’s not just post and pray. Gotta have rights to that track or they’ll flag you quick.

nah i get that i just did some chill songs a few months back, like 30 of the,m that were CK2/EU4 themes to chill with. To my understanding, the AI made them(with the theme), but idk if they would still get copyright or not?my idea was to just make like 500-600 of thos types of songs but i didnt know if you need to have lyrics or if that matters (not sure if it would look more bot like) also something i might put on the backround lol

The whole point is to keep it mad organic — could be lyrics, could be just beats. When it comes to the bars, just let your mind go wild, anything flies. The real game here is the distributor — from what I’ve seen, DistroKid’s the one that really be watchin’ that kinda stuff.
