FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I monetize YouTube videos with the Creator License?
Yes! The Creator License includes full YouTube monetization rights. You can run ads on your videos without any additional fees.
What's the difference between buying one track vs. subscribing?
Buying one track ($39) gives you a perpetual Creator License for that specific track. Subscribing ($19/month) gives you unlimited downloads of our entire catalog while your subscription is active. If you need 2+ tracks per month, the subscription is the better value.
Do I need a Commercial License for client work?
It depends. If you're creating content for a client's YouTube channel, social media, or podcast, the Creator License covers it. If the client is using the music in paid advertising, broadcast TV, or theatrical releases, you'll need a Commercial License.
Can I use the music in a paid ad on Instagram or Facebook?
Paid advertising requires a Commercial License. Organic social media posts (even for brands) are covered under the Creator License, but boosted posts and paid ads need commercial clearance.
What happens if my subscription expires?
You can continue using music in projects created while your subscription was active. However, you cannot download new tracks or start new projects with catalog music until you reactivate your subscription.
How do I get a Commercial License quote?
Contact us with details about your project: media type (film, TV, ad, game), distribution territory, duration of use, and any exclusivity needs. We'll provide a custom quote within 24 hours.
Are there any hidden fees or backend royalties?
No hidden fees. The license price is all-inclusive. We collect performance royalties through BMI when your content airs on broadcast TV or radio, but this doesn't affect you or cost you anything.
Can I edit or remix the music?
Yes! You can edit, cut, loop, or adjust the music to fit your project. You cannot create derivative works for resale or distribution as standalone music.
