I have in the past made several videos and posted how hifi units work , All have been deleted as I used music :scratch:

How do you show a audio device working and sounding good without using any music :scratch::scratch::scratch:

[walpurgis]

Use copyright free music.

Turn the clock back to a time when the internet wasn't dominated by corporate bullshit....

[walpurgis]

Then it was just life that was dominated by corporate bullshit.

Use copyright free music.

All music is copyright, unless it is old enough to be out of it. There is loads of royalty free and free to use music out there though

I think that's the problem .... the confusion between 'copyright free' and 'royalty free'

Either way I would suggest getting a lawyer to check the small print before entering into an agreement with any of the plethora of websites offering 'royalty free' music ... or better still get a talented mate to make some toons for your Youtube videos (after signing a waiver of course....)

Moving forward and progressing more freedoms of how copyright can apply to new music,
is Creative Commons (cc) . https://creativecommons.org/licenses/

And cc music communities providing means of accessing: http://creativecommons.org/music-communities

Here you go, Archive.org has an entire sction on the site dedicated to Netlables, the interface is not the best but if you look down the right hand list they cover everkind of music concivable, most are streamable and downloadable, some have Wav or flac files availible and will tell you if they are under a CC licence.

Loads of new music goodness, enjoy. :)

Use classical music.

[Joe]

Use classical music.

Surely the performance will (or might) be still subject to copyright?

Paul is correct. I should have said royalty free music.

By the way Paul. You had a double post. I've removed one for you. :)

[Wakefield Turntables]

Use classical music.

What about using a performance on a >50 year old piece of vinyl?

Its a minefield :eek:

[Spectral Morn]

Royalty free with a mention where the music is from in the text under the video on yotube will be Ok.

Kevin MacLeod has plenty of Royalty free stuff on his website:

How much does it cost?
Annual licences start at £129 + VAT, although the actual rates depend upon the type of service and the level of music usage. Download our LOML guide for the full rate table.

PPL licence :eek:


Looks like its Royalty free then

Not forgetting that the type of file stored then becomes subject to further layers of
possible payment and revenue for those involved licensing, often referred to as mechanical copyright.
in the case of Mp3 applying to artists ( but does it actually stop there ? ) here: http://mp3licensing.com/royalty/

The licences stated as PPL as far as I know support the record labels, vs
separate performing rights associations such as APRA here in New Zealand and Australia
that slightly more decently collect royalties on behalf of musicians

The most sensible thing I think to do is reject music capitalism as much as you possibly can, by
rejecting i this and that , storing music as either flac or ogg and supporting cc artists, and using free software.
http://www.fsf.org where possible

Also another good point is that the music industry has been in decline for many years
as it fails to take any risk at all with music releases, and appears to do little
to find amazing new artists. There are of course exceptions like ECM doing the exact
opposite, and thank goodness for that. Anyone else know of a record company besides ECM
exploring new music and artists ?
