Downloading music files from www.audiolicense.net

Audio Network has introduced a straightforward way of accessing high quality music online, for personal use or for synchronisation use in your audio-visual production.

By paying the appropriate fee to download a music file for synchronisation use, you are automatically cleared to use the track in one named audio-visual production.

Alternatively, to use the track in more than one production or for multiple track usage, contact us for a blanket licence.

By exploring our Browse-by-Category music search facility, you can audition all tracks and save them to your online ‘Shopping Cart’.

For help on purchasing and downloading individual tracks or for more information on saving short-listed tracks to your locker, go to About My Locker or call us.

Terms and Conditions of music use:

Unauthorised synchronisation use, copying, hiring, lending, broadcast and public performance are strictly prohibited.

Download For Personal Use: Downloads for personal use are for personal usage and storage by the user only

If you wish to use the music track in an audio-visual production, you must change your usage type to one of the categories listed below:

Home / Student Productions: Covers synchronisation use in home/student or wedding videos, films and other multi-media projects or for use in your home, education establishment or church. Covers distribution of the finished audio-visual production to festivals, friends and family or User Generated Content aggregators. Excludes products for commercial sale or exploitation.

Corporate / Charity Productions: Covers synchronisation use in Corporate or Charitable videos, DVDs, presentations, web-sites or other multi-media projects. Covers up to 100 copies of the finished audio-visual production for distribution within the Corporation or Charity.

TV & Other Productions: Covers synchronisation use with film, radio and television programmes, commercials, or any other multimedia, audio-visual or computer generated productions or presentations. All rights in the sound recording and music and the dubbing fee are cleared for the above uses for the world.

To validate your on-line usage licence, registration of the Production title with Audio Network is required at the checkout at the time of payment (where known). Alternatively the music usage must be recorded on a music cue sheet in the usual way, and a copy of the music cue sheet supplied to Audio Network.

The cue sheet, stating the name of your production should be emailed, faxed, or posted to us.

When a cue sheet has been received we will validate your production licence at no extra charge upon request.

Any changes to the original length or content of the production - cut-downs, trailers, re-versions, re-dubbing etc – will classify as a ‘new’ production. You will need to re-apply for a second online production licence, or contact us for information about our comprehensive blanket licence that will cover all your usage needs. You may also find a blanket licence saves you money if you need to use more than one track in your production(s).

A Retail licence is required when a production is duplicated on any format and made available for retail sale to the general public. Contact us to arrange an instant retail licence covering all your requirements. See below for our standard retail licence fees.The Retail licence is not necessary if your production is simply for broadcast, home, student, corporate or charitable use.

Music-only productions (such as music only CDs) are prohibited without the express written consent of Audio Network Plc. Music may not be re-recorded, duplicated or re-sold without the express written consent of Audio Network Plc.

Public Performance fees are not covered by the music download fee or the Audio Network blanket licence. Clearing public performance rights is normally the responsibility of the Broadcaster, public event organiser or web site owner, and do not come out of the producer’s budget. There are no PPL fees payable on the public performance of Audio Network recordings. However, public performance usage must still be cleared with the ‘PRS’ in the UK, or similar societies in overseas territories in the normal way. For more information on performing rights please feel free to contact us or your local performing rights society.

The Copyright and Recording rights in the music and sound effects on this website are owned by Audio Network Plc. Transfer, copying, or duplication of any music or effects file downloaded from this site is strictly prohibited unless authorised in writing by Audio Network Plc, except for the purpose of specific audio and/or visual synchronisation by the licensee. In the event of a breach any of the above terms and conditions, action may be taken against you directly by Audio Network plc.
