What is Royalty-Free Music?
Royalty-Free Music is music that can be used commercially without paying ongoing royalties. Unlike regular commercial music, where every public performance requires payment to copyright bodies, royalty-free music includes all rights in a single license.
How Does It Work?
When you play regular commercial music in your business - whether it's a popular artist - you're typically required to pay royalties to various bodies such as:
These additional licensing fees can add up significantly depending on your business size, type and jurisdiction.
With royalty-free business music, you pay a fixed monthly subscription (from $35/month at 4Play), and that's it. No additional payment to anyone.
