EnglishCopyright-free music for YouTube
So your video both sounds great and earns: where to get tracks and sound effects that are already licensed – free in the YouTube Audio Library or in the huge Epidemic Sound catalog.
Use the music on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Twitch and even in ads.
Someone else’s music can take all the money your video makes
views on a beginner creator’s video
earned by the creator – the money went to the music’s author
that video could have earned
Quite often creators, especially beginners, release a good video and it takes off to 2–3 million views. You ask: “How much did you make?” – “Nothing, the money went to the author of the music.” And they could have made $3,000–5,000. It’s unfair, but that’s how YouTube works.
