a) What is a standard license? A standard license is for someone who plans to use the purchased track for a project they will develop for personal use or for a client who has contracted with you on a project. In this case, you may use the orginal song template or a modified version: in a music track. ( note: if you use track in it's original form, you must give credit on album to the original engineer. However, if you change it to be your own, feel free to take full credit!) or; in an electronic document such as a PowerPoint presentation or; as part of software you create or; in a video production or; on a website One thing to remember with the standard license is that if you export the original- unmodified song, you are restricted to one application. For example: You may incorporate the Original Song Template in a commercially available software program that you or your clients distribute. An unlimited number of copies of the software program may be made and sold but the Original Song Template cannot be incorporated in more than one software program or other work. Additionally, buyers of the software program must not offer the Original Song Template for sale. b)What is an extended license? In addition to rights acquired under the standard license, the purchase of an extended license entitled you to license, sub-license, sell or resell the Original Song Template, with no restriction on the number of usages made. Extended License are typically 4 times the cost of the standard license. Yes, if the Song Template is altered or incorporated in another project, there is no restriction on the number of copies of that work that can be reproduced and distributed.While you can take credit for musical production, you still must credit the original Engineer. The Engineer's contact information can be found in the "READ ME" file that came packed within the .ZIP file you downloaded from our store. For more details on what you can and cannot do with the song templates, please read our licensing agreement here. d) Can I export the original song the way it is and sell it as my own? While the songs are meant to be starting points, under the standard license, you can export the song and sell it for certain uses ( I.E for use on an albumn or in a web template you've created for commercial purposes). You may also export the original song and sell it as your own creation on an album or CD however if you use track in it's original form, you must give credit on album to the original engineer. However, if you change it to be your own, feel free to take full credit!. The Engineer's contact information can be found in the "READ ME" file that came packed within the .ZIP file you downloaded from our store. For more details on what you can and cannot do with the song templates, please read our licensing agreement here. e)Are the purchased tracks royalty-free? f) Can I sell the template as my own template on your site or another site? If you purchased a Standard license: No you cannot. You have purchased a single user license for life, and it is not transferable. You may not sell the original song template or sub-license either - Doing so is breaking the law and we will have to hunt you down and do unspeakable things. If you purchased an Extended License: Yes, you may sell and or resell with no restriction. However, the license is non transferable. g) Are the free tracks royalty-free? Yes, however, you may not export individual samples or midi files and sell them (I.E such as in a sample pack or as a sound effect). If you purchased an Extended License: You may resell the template as you wish. However, you cannot sell the individual samples within them as an individual file (I.E in a sample pack etc).
This is the simplified version of our user license. please read the full user license agreement for all things you can and cannot do.
h) Who else can use the templates (or the sounds within them) that I have purchased?
If You purchase a Standard License: Only you. Unless, of course, they also purchase the same product/license from us. Only the Original purchaser has the right to use the sounds commercially. If you do give or sell the songs to someone else, and they use the sounds within a commercial release, they will have to pay royalties to Beatelite.com and our engineers and maybe our pets too.
i) Can I place the song files or samples on a torrent or file sharing network?
We'll spare you from the sob story of how purchasing from us legally gives our hard working artists money for food, clothes, and diapers for their kids, and we'll just say hell to the no.
