so seeing as Envato support doesn’t answer licenses questions I figure Id ask here,

So I have a few personal projects(videos) I’ll be working on in the next couple months, Ill need music for it so of course Ill come here, but the question is do I need the extended license or just the regular

I get the 1 video = 1 song and the videos will only be posted on vimeo or youtube(maybe both) and I guess they’ll kind of be used in a commercial matter because they’ll be use to promote my artwork but not directly if that makes sense. The videos won’t be redistributed or reproduced so Im guessing all I need is a regular license, but figured Id ask for your guys/gals opinions because its your work Ill be using

Thanks ahead

Chris

Regular license and you can promote your business directly or indirectly as long as the video is free to view.

Cheers

Hey Chris, like soundengine said, you just need the regular license. You would only need an extended license if you were going to sell the very project or video that contained the song.

Nice to see ya on AJ :)
