Hey Guys,

I’m working on a project that mixes AI generated music, music distribution, and automated streaming using phone farms to earn royalties with minimal effort.


The Music Side:
  • I’m using AI tools to generate 500+ original songs
  • Each track is between 1:30 to 2:30 minutes
  • I’ll also include 50 real Billboard Top 100 songs in the playlist to make the streaming pattern look more human and avoid suspicion
  • All songs will be distributed to major platforms

The Streaming Side (Where the Money Comes In):

After researching royalty rates, I found that the 4 most profitable platforms are:
  • Apple Music
  • YouTube Music
  • Tidal
  • Napster
To get streams, I’ll be using phone farm boxes, which are server style cases that hold 20 phone motherboards each.


Phase 1 – Starting Small:
I’ll start with 1 phone farm box
  • 20 phones
  • Streaming 24/7
  • Connected via Ethernet
  • Controlled by PC software

If things work smoothly and generate reasonable revenue, I’ll scale up to 4 phone boxes (1 per platform) that will be 80 phones streaming across the platforms.


Scaling & Staying Lowkey:

Here’s where the strategy gets more advanced:

1. Multiple Musicians (Fake Artist Profiles)
Instead of uploading 500 songs under one name, I’ll create multiple artist profiles:
  • Musician A: Starts with 250–500 songs
    • Adds 50–100 new songs weekly
    • Gets streamed by 4 phone boxes (1 per platform)
  • Musician B, C, D: Same setup over time

This helps avoid triggering platform limits and flags.

2. Avoiding Suspicion
I learned that most platforms don’t like more than 3,000 streams per day per song, so the idea is to:
  • Spread out the streams across a large catalog
  • Keep daily streams per track low
  • Mix in real tracks from Billboard to keep behavior natural
  • Shuffle playlists, randomize behavior, add sleep/wake cycles to the phones

Monetization Formula:
  • 1 artist = 500 songs
  • 4 platforms = 4 boxes (80 phones total)
  • 80 phones streaming shuffled playlists 24/7
  • I keep 100% of the royalties since I own all the AI-generated content

Important Note About Payments: Royalties are usually delayed by about 3 months.
For example:

  • Streams made on Jan 1st will be paid out around March 1st
  • So I’m expecting a delay in payments but once it’s running the payouts should come in consistently each month.

Future Plan:
  • Start with 1 phone farm box
  • Scale up to 4 boxes (1 per platform)
  • Launch more musicians and rotate streaming
  • Monitor ROI and tweak playlists/streams weekly
  • Aim to reach stable passive income from royalties, fully automated

If you’ve done something similar or have advice on music distributors, automation tools, or safe streaming patterns, drop a reply. Open to feedback and will keep posting updates as I grow this.
 
If anyone wants to help out or correct me, I'm glad to hear all comments on my project.
 
Hey, Im thinking about starting a farm too. I do programming for a living, but I dont have any experience with bots. Im trying to gather up all the info I can, but I feel kind of overwhelmed as this topic is pretty huge rabbit hole, if you want to do it properly.

1) What bots are you using? Did you develop them on your own?
2) Why are you using phone boxes and not VPS, or real phones?
3) What about proxies? Are you going to buy a mobile proxy or use some other?
4) Do you care about fingerprinting?
5) Would you mind sharing the app you are using to create music?
6) Are you going to target specific market as I assume the royalties differ based on the origin of streams?

Anyway I wish you good luck and keep us updated!

Good luck !

What is your current concept of music stream farming? Did you create a visual mind map of how you will run and manage it?
 
I was thinking about creating a DB and storing all data for user to stay persistent. So each streaming account would have assigned unique fingerprint (browser, system, language, etc. ... Id generate these once and re-use them), cookies, its own proxy, music genre etc. Also I was thinking about making the bot as most humanlike as possible with stuff like random mouse movements, pattern of typing, skipping songs, adding new ones to playlist, liking songs, etc.

I liked your idea, but simplicity is key nothing get more realistic that a hardware phone + 4g mobile proxies.
 
You might want to check smaller distributors too, they sometimes pay faster and have less strict limits.
 
are u in vietnam <3 can u have a offline day for sharing more :)
 
Something like Appium? Or do you have any other suggestions? I'm just web developer, when it comes to apps Im clueless
I really depends if you want to have a clean scalable phone farm you can find online (server-shaped box containing hardware phone motherboards usually Samsung S8/S9 and higher end models) they are 10-20 phones per box and priced anywhere from 500-1600 used they require 1 power source and 1 ethernet cable and managed by a pc. if you want to cut corners and buy used phones in bulk you will run into issues with power and wifi so scaling will be difficult.

my recommendation is try using an emulator create 5-10 phones and test it out, then buy a phone box also the automation software is called Panda VIP but they have many different software types.
 
Getting so much music approved on one musician will be hardly possible nowadays. Need to spread more. I am doing this business since 4 years and if you know the metrics to look at it works just fine.
 
Alright this sound too good to be true how much you earn any estimate ? like for one artist with 500 and 1 phone farm box. How much you can earn i would love to hear from you :)
 
I think finding some other music platforms which offer faster payouts would be better, also i know phones are the best to do it and mobile proxy but is there no way to automate it through a web browser with mobile proxy? (I never did spotify farming, but i did other automated tools so i'm just curious)
 
Have you started this business already?
You outlined all the whole steps clearly and is superb cos you really dedicated much time writing or typing this whole thing down.
Pls I will like to start a business like this and I will be glad if you can carry me along.
If you have started already, how is the earning part like?
I don't see Spotify in your list, is Spotify not good for the business?

The payouts dont get any faster than with Apple. Tidal is slower yes, but Apple is gold :)
 
careful with that play, platforms run fraud checks heavy now. ai songs fine, but farming streams at scale can nuke ur distro accounts + freeze payouts. safer to test tiny, see if royalties even clear before scaling. rotate distros, spread catalogs, don’t keep all tracks under one account, and expect some accounts to get burned. margins shrink fast once they catch on.
