Question 3

What happens if I cancel my subscription?

Question 4

Can I use the same music track in multiple creative projects?

Accepted Answer

Tracks, shorts, and loops downloaded through your subscription are covered for web and industrial use by our Standard License. Music covered by this license can be used in one project, worldwide, in perpetuity. To use a particular track, short, or loop on multiple or new projects, you must license it again by clicking the track’s download button.

Does the monthly music subscription cover TV, broadcast, radio, film, or in-app use?
