music licensing

Wherever legally possible, Music Curation licenses cover all necessary rights from music rights holders (such as record labels, music publishers, and local collection societies), so that you don’t have to.

For customers in the U.S and Canada, Music Curation licenses cover all necessary music rights, including the public performance right. This means that Music Curation customers in the U.S. and Canada won't have to pay additional public performance rights fees to the local collecting societies such as ASCAP, BMI, SOCAN, and Re: Sound.

There are a few exceptions, however. If you play music in a business that does any of the following, you should contact the local collecting societies for a public performance license:

  • Conducts physical activity to music, such as a dance studio or fitness class.

  • Plays music from another source other than your Soundtrack product such as a DJ, karaoke, or live music events (like music festivals).

  • Charges an admission fee.
