Music Copyright

There’s an ever-widening grey area when it comes to downloading digital music or sharing copyrighted intellectual property like books and art.

2011 was a busy year in the world of digital music copyright law; the main topic of conversation was the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA).

Premiumbeat.com is a “Production Music” Library. Our music is available for licensing in Media Productions (website, video, DVDs, TV broadcast, film, games, etc.) as background music synchronized with your production. You cannot sing over the music track or add an instrument and market the results as if it was your music.

Ever downloaded music from the Internet? Perhaps you wanted to use it in the classroom, or needed it for your website, or to add to a flash movie, or maybe to jazz up a multimedia project…

At Premiumbeat.com, our business is selling licenses to use music in multimedia and traditional media productions. By providing royalty free music we make this process exceptionally easy for our clients.

While surfing the Internet, you find a site with MP3 files of chartbuster songs, and you can download them for free. Sounds too good to be true. So you go ahead and now you have all your favorite songs on your computer and you play them on your website. Problem? Like many other people, you have assumed that everything posted on the Internet is in the public domain.
