The most important question
What happens if YouTube shows a claim?
This concern affects almost everyone who buys music. The short answer: a claim can appear — but it's not a rights issue, just an automatic system notice. And it can be resolved.
1
You upload your videoThe catalog is registered with the Content ID system through a service provider — this protects the music from unauthorized use by third parties.
→
2
A claim appearsThe system recognizes the music and flags it automatically. Your video stays online; it will not be blocked.
→
3
You provide the video linkYou enter the address of your YouTube video already during the order. Nothing more is needed.
→
✓
Claim gets releasedWe clear exactly this video. The claim on it is released, and the revenue stays with you.
✓
A claim is not a licensing issue
It doesn't mean anything is wrong with your license. It's the flip side of the catalog being protected at all — otherwise anyone could use the music without permission.
!
What you should not do
Do not register the music yourself with a distributor or Content ID service. Tracks that are not exclusively licensed must not be submitted there — this creates false claims against other customers.

Which license do I need for YouTube?
That depends on where the video ends up running. For YouTube only, the smallest license is enough — as soon as the same clip also appears on Instagram or TikTok, you need the next tier up.

Orientation
Which music fits which video?
A tutorial calls for different music than a travel vlog. This overview helps you get started — the catalog also lets you filter by mood, tempo, and genre.
🎬
Vlog & TravelWarm, driving, melodic. Can have personality, since it carries the rhythm of the edit.
Upbeat · Indie · Cinematic💡
Tutorial & Explainer VideoRestrained and even. Must not cover the voice — textural rather than melodic.
Ambient · Corporate · Minimal⭐
Review & UnboxingRelaxed and modern, with a clear pulse. Holds attention without pushing itself into the foreground.
Lo-Fi · Chill · Electronic🚀
Intro & Channel TrailerShort, concise, recognizable. Here it pays off to choose a track that matches the channel's brand.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions from YouTubers
Am I allowed to monetize my video with this music?
Yes. Monetization through your own channel or AdSense account is included — starting with the YouTube license. The revenue stays entirely with you. This requires the video to be cleared, which is why you provide the video link when placing your order.
What do I do if a claim still shows up?
Send us the video address — ideally already with your order. We'll then clear that exact video, and the claim on it will be released. Important to know: your video stays online and available in the meantime, a claim doesn't block anything.
Do I need a new license for every video?
With the YouTube license, yes — it applies to one video. With the larger licenses, it applies to one production — including its versions, such as a short cut or a different language version of the same video. A new episode or a new video requires its own license.
What happens if I stop buying at some point?
Nothing. There's no subscription: whatever you've licensed once remains usable for an unlimited time. So your published videos stay covered — unlike subscription platforms, where clearance for new productions ends when you cancel.
Am I allowed to cut or loop the music?
Yes. Trimming, extending, looping, cutting, and combining with picture and additional audio tracks is allowed. Where available, alternative versions and individual stems are also provided — allowing the music to be fine-tuned even more precisely to the edit.
Is the music really royalty-free?
Yes — and also GVL-free. This is a distinction many providers don't make: royalty-free (GEMA-free) applies to the composition, GVL-free applies to the recording. For truly fee-free use, both must apply. More on this in the article Royalty-free and GVL-free: what's the difference.
