No. When you make a purchase at StockMusic.com, you are purchasing a synchronization license for use of our music, not the copyright to the music itself. StockMusic.com retains all copyright in its music, sound effects and production elements.
No. All transactions conducted at StockMusic.com are considered final sales. Please make your license purchasing decisions carefully, because once you have obtained download access to any of our digital tracks, we are unable to cancel your license or issue a refund for your purchase.
No. Only single tracks are sold on this site. You can find complete albums available for purchase at Sound Ideas.
If you receive a Copyright Violation notice on a posted video, it means that YouTube has identified some content in your video that belongs to someone else – in this case, it is that music belongs to us. StockMusic.com participates in the Content ID program which monitors all uploads to YouTube and similar online sites and searches for audio content that matches its catalog.
The Content ID technology exists so that: (a) music publishers can identify videos that include their music, (b) YouTube can generate revenue by placing ads on those identified videos, (c) YouTube can share that ad revenue with Content ID partners like StockMusic.com and its composers; and (d) YouTube can use this ad revenue stream so it can continue to provide its video sharing site for free.
If you licensed the music from StockMusic.com for this use, contact us by email (info@stockmusic.com). We will confirm your license and start the process to have the notice removed from your video. In your email, please make sure to give us the URL for your video, relevant information about your license and the best way to contact you.
Our music is available from many online sources. You may have acquired and used our music without knowing it. The good news is that your video should not be taken down because of a claim in relation to StockMusic.com content.
However, if you believe that the YouTube Content ID system has misidentified the music in your video or that you own the identified music content – you should dispute the claim. It will be reviewed quite quickly. Once we receive notice from YouTube, we will review your claim. If your video does not contain music owned by StockMusic.com, we will release the claim.
This advertising is the way that YouTube generates revenue to pay for its service. Supporting the Content ID system helps keep YouTube free for everyone. If you properly licensed a track from StockMusic.com, and you have concerns about the advertising next to your video, please contact us by email with the URL for your video, relevant information about your license and the best way to contact you. We will confirm your license and start the process to have the notice removed from your video.
