iTunes is a service that lets you pay for the right to stream music. Yes, from multiple devices, but that does not mean that you own that music. You can read there full license agreement here, but basically, the music that you have on your phone or device is not free for the remixing. Take a look at these other options. They will be of more use to you.

These terms and conditions create a contract between you and Apple (the "Agreement"). Please read the Agreement carefully. To confirm your understanding and acceptance of the Agreement, click "Agree."

A. INTRODUCTION TO OUR SERVICES

This Agreement governs your use of Apple's services ("Services"), through which you can buy, get, license, rent or subscribe to media, apps ("Apps"), and other in-app services ("Content"). Our Services are: iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, Apple Music, and Apple News. Our Services are available for your use in your country of residence ("Home Country"). To use our Services, you need compatible hardware, software (latest version recommended and sometimes required) and Internet access (fees may apply). Our Services' performance may be affected by these factors.

B. USING OUR SERVICES

PAYMENTS, TAXES, AND REFUNDS

You can acquire Content on our Services for free or for a charge, either of which is referred to as a "Transaction." Each Transaction is an electronic contract between you and Apple, and/or you and the entity providing the Content on our Services. However, if you are a customer of Apple Distribution International and you acquire an App or a book, Apple Distribution International is the merchant of record; this means that you acquire the Content from Apple Distribution International, and it is licensed by the App Provider (as defined below) or book publisher. When you make your first Transaction, we will ask you to choose how frequently we should ask for your password for future Transactions. If you enable Touch ID for Transactions, we will ask you to authenticate all Transactions with your fingerprint. Manage your password settings at any time by following these instructions: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204030. Apple will charge your payment method (such as your credit card, debit card, gift card/code, or other method available in your Home Country) for any paid Transactions, including any applicable taxes. If you pre-order Content, you will be charged when the Content is delivered to you (unless you cancel prior to the Content's availability). In accordance with local law, Apple may update information regarding your payment method if provided such information by your financial institution. For details about how Transactions are billed, please visit http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582. All Transactions are final. Content prices may change at any time. If technical problems prevent or unreasonably delay delivery of Content, your exclusive and sole remedy is either replacement of the Content or refund of the price paid, as determined by Apple. From time to time, Apple may refuse a refund request if we find evidence of fraud, refund abuse, or other manipulative behavior that entitles Apple to a corresponding counterclaim. Terms related to gift cards/codes are available here: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/giftcards/.

APPLE ID

Using our Services and accessing your Content requires an Apple ID. An Apple ID is the account you use across Apple's ecosystem. Your Apple ID is valuable, and you are responsible for maintaining its confidentiality and security. Apple is not responsible for any losses arising from the unauthorized use of your Apple ID. Please contact Apple if you suspect that your Apple ID has been compromised.

You must be age 13 (or equivalent minimum age in your Home Country, as set forth in the registration process) to create an Apple ID and use our Services. Apple IDs for persons under this age can be created by a parent or legal guardian using Family Sharing or by an approved educational institution.

PRIVACY

Your use of our Services is subject to Apple's Privacy Policy, which is available at https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/.

SERVICES AND CONTENT USAGE RULES

Your use of the Services and Content must follow the rules set forth in this section ("Usage Rules"). Any other use of the Services and Content is a material breach of this Agreement. Apple may monitor your use of the Services and Content to ensure that you are following these Usage Rules.

All Services:

- You may use the Services and Content only for personal, noncommercial purposes (except as set forth in the App Store Content section below).

- Apple's delivery of Content does not transfer any promotional use rights to you, and does not constitute a grant or waiver of any rights of the copyright owners.

- You can use Content from up to five different Apple IDs on each device.

- It is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage Content once downloaded. We encourage you to back up your Content regularly.

- You may not tamper with or circumvent any security technology included with the Services.

- You may access our Services only using Apple's software, and may not modify or use modified versions of such software.

- Video Content requires an HDCP connection.

iTunes Store Content:

- Content rentals are viewable on a single device at a time, and must be played within 30 days, and completed within 24 to 48 hours of the start of play depending on the Content offered on the Services in your Home Country (stopping, pausing or restarting does not extend this period).

- You may burn an audio playlist to CD for listening purposes up to seven times (this limitation does not apply to DRM-free Content).

App Store Content:

- The term "App" includes apps, iMessage and Apple Watch apps, in-app purchases, extensions (such as keyboards), stickers, and subscriptions made available in an app.

- You can use Apps on any device that you own or control.

- Individuals acting on behalf of a commercial enterprise, governmental organization or educational institution (an "Enterprise") may download and sync Apps for use by either (i) a single individual on one or more devices owned or controlled by an Enterprise; or (ii) multiple individuals on a single shared device owned or controlled by an Enterprise. For the sake of clarity, each device used serially or collectively by multiple users requires a separate license.

iBooks Store Content:

- You may not burn iBooks Store Content to disk.

REDOWNLOADS

You may be able to redownload previously acquired Content ("Redownload") to your devices that are signed in with the same Apple ID ("Associated Devices"). You can see Content types available for Redownload in your Home Country at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204632. Content may not be available for Redownload if that Content is no longer offered on our Services.

Associated Devices Rules: You can have 10 devices (but only a maximum of 5 computers) signed in with your Apple ID at one time. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID (to learn more about authorization of computers, visit https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201251). Devices can be associated with a different Apple ID once every 90 days.

SUBSCRIPTIONS

The Services and certain Apps may allow you to purchase access to Content or services on a subscription basis ("Paid Subscriptions"). Paid Subscriptions automatically renew until cancelled in the Manage Subscriptions section of your account settings. We will notify you if the price of a Paid Subscription increases and, if required, seek your consent to continue. You will be charged no more than 24 hours prior to the start of the latest Paid Subscription period. If we cannot charge your payment method for any reason (such as expiration or insufficient funds), and you have not cancelled the Paid Subscription, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts, and we will attempt to charge the payment method as you may update your payment method information. This may result in a change to the start of your next Paid Subscription period and may change the date on which you are billed for each period. Certain Paid Subscriptions may offer a free trial prior to charging your payment method. If you decide to unsubscribe from a Paid Subscription before we start charging your payment method, cancel the subscription before the free trial ends.

CONTENT AND SERVICE AVAILABILITY

Terms found in this Agreement that relate to Services, Content types, features or functionality not available in your Home Country are not applicable to you unless and until they become available to you. To see the Content types available to you in your Home Country, go to the Services or visit https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204411.

NON-APPLE DEVICES

If you use our Services on a non-Apple-branded device, you may not be able to access all features or Content types. Terms in this Agreement relating to unavailable features or Content types are not applicable to you. If you later choose to access our Services from an Apple-branded device, you agree that all terms of this Agreement will apply to your use on such device.

C. YOUR SUBMISSIONS TO OUR SERVICES

Our Services may allow you to submit materials such as comments, pictures, videos, and podcasts (including associated metadata and artwork). Your use of such features must comply with the Submissions Guidelines below, which may be updated from time to time. If you see materials that do not comply with the Submissions Guidelines, please use the Report a Concern feature. You hereby grant Apple a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, nonexclusive license to use the materials you submit within the Services and related marketing. Apple may monitor and decide to remove or edit any submitted material.

Submissions Guidelines: You may not use the Services to:

- post any materials that you do not have permission, right or license to use;

D. FAMILY SHARING

The organizer of a Family ("Organizer") must be 18 years or older and the parent or legal guardian of any Family member under age 13 or the equivalent minimum age in their Home Country (as set forth in the registration process). Apple devices are required for access to all of the Family Sharing features.

Purchase Sharing: Family Sharing's Purchase Sharing feature allows you to share eligible Content with up to six members of a Family. The Organizer invites other members to participate, and agrees to pay for all Transactions initiated by Family members. The Organizer's payment method is used to pay for any Transaction initiated by a Family member (except when the Family member's account has store credit, which is always used first). Family members are acting as agents for the Organizer when the Organizer's payment method is used. The Organizer hereby agrees (1) to pay for such Transactions, and (2) that Transactions initiated by Family members are authorized. Organizers are responsible for complying with their payment method contract, and assume all risk related to sharing access to the payment method with Family members. A receipt or invoice for any Family member Transaction is sent to the initiating Family member and the Organizer.

Ask to Buy: Ask to Buy is a convenient feature that allows an Organizer to approve each Transaction initiated by a Family member under age 18 (or the equivalent age of majority in your Home Country). The Organizer must be the parent or legal guardian of any Family member for whom Ask to Buy is activated. Content downloaded from Family members or acquired via redemption codes are not subject to Ask to Buy.

Family Member changes: When a Family member leaves or is removed from the Family, the remaining Family members may no longer be able to access the former member's Content, including Content acquired with the Organizer's payment method.

Family Sharing Rules: You can only belong to one Family at a time, and may join any Family no more than twice per year. You can change the Apple ID you associate with a Family no more than once every 90 days. All Family members must share the same Home Country. Not all Content, including In-App Purchases, subscriptions, and some previously acquired Apps, are eligible for Purchase Sharing.

E. RECOMMENDATION FEATURES

The Services will recommend Content to you based on your downloads, purchases and other activities. You may opt out from receiving such recommendations in your account settings.

Some recommendation features may require your permission before they are turned on. If you turn on these features, you will be asked to give Apple permission to collect and store certain data, including but not limited to data about your device activity, location, and usage. Please carefully read the information presented when you turn on these features.

F. ADDITIONAL ITUNES STORE TERMS

SEASON PASS AND MULTI-PASS

A Pass allows you to purchase and receive television Content as it becomes available. A Season Pass applies to television Content that has a limited number of episodes per season; a Multi-Pass applies to television Content that is available on an ongoing basis. The full price of a Season Pass or Multi-Pass is charged at the time of the Transaction. Season Pass or Multi-Pass Content is available for download up to 90 days after the last episode becomes available. If automatic renewal is selected when you obtain a Multi-Pass, you will be charged the full price of each subsequent Multi-Pass cycle. You can turn off automatic renewal prior to the beginning of the next Multi-Pass cycle in your account settings. If a Content provider delivers to Apple fewer TV episodes than planned when you purchased a Season Pass, we will credit to your Apple ID the retail value of the corresponding number of episodes that were not provided to Apple.

G. ADDITIONAL APP STORE TERMS

LICENSE OF APP STORE CONTENT

App licenses are provided to you by Apple or a third party developer ("App Provider"). If you are a customer of Apple Distribution International, the merchant of record is Apple Distribution International, which means that you acquire the App license from Apple Distribution International, but the App is licensed by the App Provider. An App licensed by Apple is an "Apple App;" an App licensed by an App Provider is a "Third Party App." Apple acts as an agent for App Providers in providing the App Store and is not a party to the sales contract or user agreement between you and the App Provider. Any App that you acquire is governed by the Licensed Application End User License Agreement ("Standard EULA") set forth below, unless Apple or the App Provider provides an overriding custom license agreement ("Custom EULA"). The App Provider of any Third Party App is solely responsible for its content, warranties, and claims that you may have related to the Third Party App. You acknowledge and agree that Apple is a third-party beneficiary of the Standard EULA or Custom EULA applicable to each Third Party App and may therefore enforce such agreement. Certain Apps, such as stickers and iMessage apps, may not appear on the device springboard but can be accessed and used in the Messages app drawer.

IN-APP PURCHASES

Apps may offer content, services or functionality for use within such Apps ("In-App Purchases"). In-App Purchases that are consumed during the use of the App (for example, virtual gems) cannot be transferred among devices and can be downloaded only once. You must authenticate your account before making In-App Purchases - separate from any authentication to obtain other Content - by entering your password or using Touch ID. You will be able to make additional In-App Purchases for fifteen minutes without re-authenticating unless you've asked us to require a password for every purchase or have enabled Touch ID. You can turn off the ability to make In-App Purchases by following these instructions: http s://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201304.

APP MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT

Apple is responsible for providing maintenance and support for Apple Apps only, or as required under applicable law. App Providers are responsible for providing maintenance and support for Third Party Apps.

LICENSED APPLICATION END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT

Apps made available through the App Store are licensed, not sold, to you. Your license to each App is subject to your prior acceptance of either this Licensed Application End User License Agreement ("Standard EULA"), or a custom end user license agreement between you and the Application Provider ("Custom EULA"), if one is provided. Your license to any Apple App under this Standard EULA or Custom EULA is granted by Apple, and your license to any Third Party App under this Standard EULA or Custom EULA is granted by the Application Provider of that Third Party App. Any App that is subject to this Standard EULA is referred to herein as the "Licensed Application." The Application Provider or Apple as applicable ("Licensor") reserves all rights in and to the Licensed Application not expressly granted to you under this Standard EULA.

a. Scope of License: Licensor grants to you a nontransferable license to use the Licensed Application on any Apple-branded products that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules. The terms of this Standard EULA will govern any content, materials, or services accessible from or purchased within the Licensed Application as well as upgrades provided by Licensor that replace or supplement the original Licensed Application, unless such upgrade is accompanied by a Custom EULA. Except as provided in the Usage Rules, you may not distribute or make the Licensed Application available over a network where it could be used by multiple devices at the same time. You may not transfer, redistribute or sublicense the Licensed Application and, if you sell your Apple Device to a third party, you must remove the Licensed Application from the Apple Device before doing so. You may not copy (except as permitted by this license and the Usage Rules), reverse-engineer, disassemble, attempt to derive the source code of, modify, or create derivative works of the Licensed Application, any updates, or any part thereof (except as and only to the extent that any foregoing restriction is prohibited by applicable law or to the extent as may be permitted by the licensing terms governing use of any open-sourced components included with the Licensed Application).

b. Consent to Use of Data: You agree that Licensor may collect and use technical data and related information-including but not limited to technical information about your device, system and application software, and peripherals-that is gathered periodically to facilitate the provision of software updates, product support, and other services to you (if any) related to the Licensed Application. Licensor may use this information, as long as it is in a form that does not personally identify you, to improve its products or to provide services or technologies to you.

c. Termination. This Standard EULA is effective until terminated by you or Licensor. Your rights under this Standard EULA will terminate automatically if you fail to comply with any of its terms.

d. External Services. The Licensed Application may enable access to Licensor's and/or third-party services and websites (collectively and individually, "External Services"). You agree to use the External Services at your sole risk. Licensor is not responsible for examining or evaluating the content or accuracy of any third-party External Services, and shall not be liable for any such third-party External Services. Data displayed by any Licensed Application or External Service, including but not limited to financial, medical and location information, is for general informational purposes only and is not guaranteed by Licensor or its agents. You will not use the External Services in any manner that is inconsistent with the terms of this Standard EULA or that infringes the intellectual property rights of Licensor or any third party. You agree not to use the External Services to harass, abuse, stalk, threaten or defame any person or entity, and that Licensor is not responsible for any such use. External Services may not be available in all languages or in your Home Country, and may not be appropriate or available for use in any particular location. To the extent you choose to use such External Services, you are solely responsible for compliance with any applicable laws. Licensor reserves the right to change, suspend, remove, disable or impose access restrictions or limits on any External Services at any time without notice or liability to you.

e. NO WARRANTY: YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT USE OF THE LICENSED APPLICATION IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE LICENSED APPLICATION AND ANY SERVICES PERFORMED OR PROVIDED BY THE LICENSED APPLICATION ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, AND LICENSOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED APPLICATION AND ANY SERVICES, EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND/OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, OF SATISFACTORY QUALITY, OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OF ACCURACY, OF QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND OF NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY LICENSOR OR ITS AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY. SHOULD THE LICENSED APPLICATION OR SERVICES PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE ENTIRE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR, OR CORRECTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIMITATIONS ON APPLICABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS OF A CONSUMER, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

f. Limitation of Liability. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LICENSOR BE LIABLE FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE LICENSED APPLICATION, HOWEVER CAUSED, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY, OR OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. In no event shall Licensor's total liability to you for all damages (other than as may be required by applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the amount of fifty dollars ($50.00). The foregoing limitations will apply even if the above stated remedy fails of its essential purpose.

g. You may not use or otherwise export or re-export the Licensed Application except as authorized by United States law and the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Licensed Application was obtained. In particular, but without limitation, the Licensed Application may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S.-embargoed countries or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's Specially Designated Nationals List or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Persons List or Entity List. By using the Licensed Application, you represent and warrant that you are not located in any such country or on any such list. You also agree that you will not use these products for any purposes prohibited by United States law, including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture, or production of nuclear, missile, or chemical or biological weapons.

h. The Licensed Application and related documentation are "Commercial Items", as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. §2.101, consisting of "Commercial Computer Software" and "Commercial Computer Software Documentation", as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. §12.212 or 48 C.F.R. §227.7202, as applicable. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. §12.212 or 48 C.F.R. §227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, as applicable, the Commercial Computer Software and Commercial Computer Software Documentation are being licensed to U.S. Government end users (a) only as Commercial Items and (b) with only those rights as are granted to all other end users pursuant to the terms and conditions herein. Unpublished-rights reserved under the copyright laws of the United States.

i. Except to the extent expressly provided in the following paragraph, this Agreement and the relationship between you and Apple shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflicts of law provisions. You and Apple agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of Santa Clara, California, to resolve any dispute or claim arising from this Agreement. If (a) you are not a U.S. citizen; (b) you do not reside in the U.S.; (c) you are not accessing the Service from the U.S.; and (d) you are a citizen of one of the countries identified below, you hereby agree that any dispute or claim arising from this Agreement shall be governed by the applicable law set forth below, without regard to any conflict of law provisions, and you hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the state, province or country identified below whose law governs:

If you are a citizen of any European Union country or Switzerland, Norway or Iceland, the governing law and forum shall be the laws and courts of your usual place of residence.

Specifically excluded from application to this Agreement is that law known as the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods.

H. ADDITIONAL IBOOKS STORE TERMS

You acquire iBooks Store Content from the third-party provider of such Content (the "Publisher"), not Apple. Apple acts as an agent for the Publisher in providing iBooks Store Content to you, and therefore Apple is not a party to the Transaction between you and the Publisher. If you are a customer of Apple Distribution International, the merchant of record is Apple Distribution International, which means that you acquire a license to use the Content from Apple Distribution International, but the Content is licensed by the Publisher. The Publisher of the iBooks Store Content reserves the right to enforce the terms of use relating to such iBooks Store Content. The Publisher of the iBooks Store Content is solely responsible for such Content, any warranties to the extent that such warranties have not been disclaimed, and any claims that you or any other party may have relating to such Content.

I. ADDITIONAL APPLE MUSIC TERMS

APPLE MUSIC MEMBERSHIP

Apple Music is a subscription music service. Your Apple Music membership will automatically renew until you turn off automatic renewal in account settings. See the "Subscriptions" section for more details. When your Apple Music membership ends, you will lose access to any feature of Apple Music that requires a membership, including but not limited to access to Apple Music songs stored on your device, and iCloud Music Library. Apple reserves the right to cancel your Apple Music membership if we are unable to successfully charge your payment method to renew your membership.

Where available, you may be offered an Apple Music membership through your wireless carrier (a "Carrier Membership"). If you purchase a Carrier Membership, your carrier will bill you for the cost of your Apple Music membership. Your billing relationship with the carrier is governed by the carrier's terms and conditions, not this Agreement, and any billing disputes related to a Carrier Membership must be directed to your carrier, not Apple. By using Apple Music, you agree that your carrier may exchange your carrier account information, telephone number and subscription information with Apple, and that Apple may use this information to determine the status of your Carrier Membership.

ICLOUD MUSIC LIBRARY

iCloud Music Library is an Apple Music feature that allows you to access your matched or uploaded songs, playlists and music videos acquired from Apple Music, the iTunes Store or a third party ("iCloud Music Library Content") on your Apple Music-enabled devices. iCloud Music Library is turned on automatically when you set up your Apple Music membership. iCloud Music Library collects information about your iCloud Music Library Content. This information is associated with your Apple ID, and compared to iCloud Music Library Content currently available on Apple Music. iCloud Music Library Content that is not matched is uploaded to Apple's iCloud Music Library servers (in a format determined by Apple). You can upload up to 100,000 songs. Songs acquired from the iTunes Store or Apple Music do not count against this limit. Songs that do not meet certain criteria (for example, excessively large files) or that are not authorized for your device are not eligible for iCloud Music Library. When you use iCloud Music Library, Apple logs information such as the tracks you play, stop or skip, the devices you use, and the time and duration of playback. You agree to use iCloud Music Library only for lawfully acquired content. iCloud Music Library is provided on an "AS IS" basis and could contain errors or inaccuracies. You should back up your data and information prior to using iCloud Music Library. If you are not an Apple Music member, you may purchase an iTunes Match subscription, which is subject to the terms set forth in this section.

Here is a sound sample that I made using Audacity. Now- if you use any samples from Audacity's library, you are subject to their Commons Agreement. As this is all my work, however, I am free to use this sound file as a please.

Here is a site that offers some free sounds. More importantly, it gives you a nice break-down of what it means to own, use, and redistribute sounds. Did you know that when you purchase music you don't actually own that sound?

This article explains that and more. They also give a very clear explanation about how you are allowed to use any sound from this site.

In the last article we looked at the basics of copyright, including:

Why copyright exists.

How copyright is applied.

Copyright history.

Benefits to copyright holders.

Duration of copyright.

Copyright grey areas such as making copies, duplication and derivative works.

How licensing allows others to use creative works.

In this post I'll write about what copyright means for people that use sound effects. We'll look at:

Sound effects licences.

How you can use sound effects.

Restrictions on using sound fx.

Example projects where sound clips are or are not allowed.

Reselling a library you've already purchased.

I'll conclude the series with an article about how copyright and licensing affects sound library publishers.

The Confusion

Copyright is notoriously complicated. There are thousands of ways to use sound. Perhaps your project is unique. Are you allowed to make backups? Can you use a sound effect download in a toy your company is manufacturing? What about an app you plan to sell in the Android Market?

It's natural to be confused. Each Web shop has different rules and licences. This post will explain common uses.

If you're in doubt, it's best to email a Web shop for clarification.

At the end of this article I'll explain in plain English how you can use Airborne Sound's sound effects.

Purchasing Licences, Not Sound Effects

Hundreds of professions use sound effects. You may be a sound editor, radio producer or theatre technician. Perhaps you work for a video game company. Maybe you edit picture for commercials at an ad agency.

Whichever way you cut and use sound, whatever your project, you have one thing in common: you don't exactly own the sound effects you're using. This is the source of the largest misunderstanding to using sound effects.

It's confusing because you actually download a sound file. You can drag it around your computer desktop. It understandable to think you own something that you control. It takes up space on your hard drive, after all.

However, when you purchase a sound effect from a Web shop or CD publisher you are not actually buying the sound. Instead, you are buying a licence. This means you are buying permission to use the sound in specific ways. It does not transfer ownership of the sound to you. The Web shop still owns the sound, and the copyright to it.

The sound is actually incidental, much like a garnish to a larger dinner. The important thing you purchase, the meat of the transaction, is a licence. You're not actually purchasing a sound effect per se. You are purchasing permission.

Sound Effects Licences

What is this licence?

Expressed in the simplest way, the licence explains what can and cannot be done with the sounds. It outlines how the sound effect can be stored, shared and used.

Some licences may allow you to make many copies. Others allow you only one. Some let you use a clip in films, but not theatre. How can you find what permissions you're granted when you purchase a licence?

You must read the End User Licence Agreement (EULA). Most Web shops will have the EULA described somewhere on their site. Check the footer of the shop. You'll commonly see a link to it there.

The EULA is an contract the customer automatically agrees to whenever they download a sound. As mentioned, it describes how sounds can be used. It also explains that you automatically agree to the EULA just by using the website and downloading any sound. This is standard for many websites, such as Amazon, iTunes and so on.

What do these licenses allow or forbid? The good news is that most of them are similar. I'll list permissions and restrictions that are common with most websites.

How You Can Use Sound Effects

Sound effects typically allow synchronization rights. What are synchronization rights?

The short explanation is that you are allowed to combine the sounds with other media. It can be other sounds or video. This combination, or composition, must be in something called timed-relation. This means the composition must be changing or progressing over time. Think of it in terms of a video or radio spot that moves along a timeline. Other examples include short films, soundtracks for video games, ads and so on.

Synchronization implies that the sound must be combined with something else. This is critical. It means the original sound effect you purchased cannot be separated from the composition. Why is this important?

It means the sound effect cannot be shared. When a sound is blended with the images and dialogue of YouTube video, it cannot be extracted. Library owners don't want the original copy of a sound to be shared to people who aren't paying for it. Because of this, almost every sound effects library requires clips to be used mixed in synchronization. This guarantees the sound cannot be removed, and given to someone else without the website receiving payment.

Here are the typical ways sound effects are licenced:

Perpetual use. You can use it forever, as many times as you like, without further payment.

Storage rights. This means you are given permission to keep a copy of a copyrighted sound effect.

A backup copy, but no other copying or sharing (for cash or for free).

Use of the sound in any way, but only if it is combined with other sounds or media. This is known a synchronization rights, as mentioned above.

Restrictions On Using Sound Fx

Distribution is not allowed. This is the big one. Sound effects websites restrict sharing the sound. Why? Each time you share the sound with someone else you are depriving the copyright holder (the Web shop) of being compensated by another sale. This is true whether you share it for free, or post it for sale on another website.

Network use. The library is not permitted to be stored on a network, such as a on a server at work. It is only allowed to be stored on a single computer.

Royalty-free only. A sound effect may be labelled as royalty-free. This doesn't mean it is free, however. It just means you don't have pay every time you use it (like a radio station does with music). It does not mean that you can freely give the sound away.

Project restrictions. This is where the most Web shops differ. Some allow you to use the sound however you like. Others do not allow you to use sounds as ringtones, in video games, toys or industrial products. We'll look at this more in a moment.

Attribution is required. Some Web shops need you to mention the website every time the sound is used. This isn't as common, and mostly applies to free Web shops.

Examples

How do those permissions and restrictions apply to you? It may be difficult to know, even after reading the points above. Every project is different.

I've listed example projects below. Most licences allow sound effects to be used in these projects without restriction. They don't need any further permission from the Web shop.

If your project isn't listed, it doesn't mean you are forbidden from using the sound other ways. It just means that you may have to pay additional fees to do so.

Projects Allowed

These are examples of fair use according to most sound library licences:

Using the sound effect combined with other audio or video in a television or film soundtrack.

Using the sound clip as an on-screen effect when a monster roars, a door opens, etc.

Playing a sound when a user selects a menu item on a website. Additionally, the sound must be coded so it cannot be downloaded from the website.

In audiobooks, as long as they are merged with dialogue or music. A sound effect cannot be played on its own.

In a song, as long as it is blended with other instruments.

Using the sound in a radio show. Like audiobooks and songs, it must also be blended with other audio.

No extra fees or licences are required if you use the sound in these ways.

Projects Requiring Additional Licensing

Ringtones. Many libraries charge extra to use a sound as a ringtone or ringback tone.

Theatre use. Using a sound clip in a play is considered "broadcasting." The reasoning is that it is not in direct, merged synchronization with any other media.

Software, depending on how it is used. This includes iPhone apps. Sounds in software must be coded to be hidden from the user. They must not be allowed to find and separate the sounds from the software. Sounds stored in basic folders that appear on a customer's hard drive are not allowed. They must be blended with the software's code.

Why are these examples a problem?

Generally speaking, the issue is that the sound can be separated from the rest of the project. This means it can be copied and shared on its own. In other words, it is being distributed.

Some sound effect libraries specifically forbid these uses. Others will allow it, but will negotiate an extra fee to for permission to do this.

Are You Still Unsure?

What I've listed above may not explain your exact situation.

However, if you want a quick answer, ask yourself: Can the sound be separated from the project? If it is removed, will it be the same as the sound I originally bought?

If the answer to these questions are "no," then you are safe. You can use the sound in your project.

It's always best to contact a Web shop to make sure, though.

See a list of guidelines for using sound effects in typical projects.

Selling Libraries You've Purchased

Let's say you're retiring from sound. You're never going to use the sound libraries you've purchased again. Why not sell them?

There are rumours floating around the Web that some library publishers will sue you if you try to sell a sound library.

Are they allowed to do this? Yes and no.

If you sell the sound library you are transferring the licence to the buyer. This means you no longer have the right to store backup copies. It means you'll have to delete those copies. If you're attempting to sell the library and keep copies, this is considered distribution. You can indeed be sued for breaching the licence you agreed to when you purchased the library.

What if you just want out? You don't plan on keeping copies at all. Is this allowed?

Yes. This practice was legally recognized via selling used CDs, DVDs or books. As long as you have obtained the original legally you are certainly entitled to sell your copy. This is known as the first sale doctrine.

So you can indeed sell sound effects you have purchased. You just can't duplicate, then sell them. This includes posting copies of the sounds on a private website for others to download. Those users are downloading copies, so this too is considered distribution.

Short answer? You can only sell the original library, and only if you remove all other copies from your possession.

You may stumble across sites like these. They claim to give you MILLIONS of free downloads. All free to use and copyright free. Sounds to good to be true?
Well it isn't, and it is.

Sites like these ask for a yearly membership fee. You pay to use the site, so in effect, you are really paying for the use of the sounds. They are not really free for you to use without any strings. If you are making a living on your remixes, and sound effects, sites like these can be useful. For small projects, however, stick to sites that can you a more limited library, but do not ask for a credit card.

You may have heard that Youtube has a lot of free sounds to download. In fact, you may have seen a video like this one that shows you how to access them.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFtpzKYk-6U

But what you may not know is that many of these sound files fall under the Share A Like or No Derivatives portion of the Creative Commons Licensing. That means that many of these sounds are for YouTube videos only or cannot be cut, remixed, or altered. Rather limiting.

Watch this video, but don't trust everything you hear on the internet. Read the copyright restrictions
on any specific sample that you want to use. It may not be the right one for you.

Copyright may seem like no big deal- you're just using sound files and photos for an informal project, right?

Wrong. No matter the reason, you have to abide by copyright law. They are a law. And you have to give credit where credit is due.

Well who wants to spend all of their time figuring out what you are and are not allowed to "take" and use?

You do. Because, like I said, it's the law. But don't worry. We've compiled some resources and support to help you along the way. Take a look at each post and it's description.
