When all is ready, you must look for a digital distributor.

try to build a businnes plan on an excel sheet (fixed costs,variable costs,incomes, breakeven...) and experiment adding/removing variables to understand what's needed to survive ...
i'll stress again on the project side ! you must persuade distributors that you know what you're doing and you're not just a kid smoking pot .
for the legal side of the label you should speak with the company handling all the copyright in your country (here in Belgium SABAM, France Sacem,Italy SIAE ...)
