Hi all,
I've recently purchased some royalty free tracks to use as background music on my videos & I need some help making sense of their End User License Agreement.
It says ...
"Blah, blah, blah, hereby grants to the user who is an end-user consumer a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to perform and use for personal, non-commercial use"
Hmm, does `non-commercial use' mean no monetization?
But in the following paragraph it says ...
"Blah, blah, blah, hereby grants to the user who is commercial user a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to use and perform in a commercial context"
So does `to use and perform in a commercial context' mean I can actually monetize it?
The purchase also came with a License Guide & in that it mentions ...
"You can use our soundtracks for live performances, radio and broadcast media"
So I take it that's a big thumbs up?
Sorry to ask, it's just that I know I'm going to get a third party matched content warning, which means I'll have to dispute it & send YouTube my user license agreement .. just want to make sure I'm covered.
Also, do I have to select the creative commons license or can I just use the standard YouTube license when publishing?
Thanks for any help.
Fuzzy.
