At any time, you can remove a release from all platforms at once, or specific platforms individually. Since this action is temporary and you can restore your release whenever you choose, we call this “pausing” a release.
To pause a release on all stores and streaming services:
- Go to your distribution dashboard.
- Select "Manage" on the release you’d like to take down.
- Click "Pause" in the row of buttons under your release title.
It can take up to 7 business days for streaming services to fully remove your release. While a release is paused, it will not generate trends data or earnings.
To restore your release to all platforms, simply click the "Resume" button, and your release will be reinstated as originally created.
If you want to pause a release on specific platforms individually, read this article.
