Introduction
If you are a YouTuber, podcaster, filmmaker, or anyone who needs to use music and songs in your professional life, then you might be one of the chief antagonists of this two-word term:
COPYRIGHT STRIKE.
I know how hard it is to see a copyright email on your YouTube video after shooting and editing it for hours.
Copyright issues are most prevalent in YouTube.
Insert a few lines of a not-so royalty-free song and you will receive a warning to remove the song by the owners of that tune.
If you do not agree as per their rules, then all your YouTube money goes to them.
Sounds frightening. Right?
If you are that person who is in constant need of copyright-free songs, you are not alone, my friend.
In this new guide, I will introduce to one of the biggest songs and music certifying platform through which you can use any genre of music or song anywhere without worrying about the copyright claims and all.
The name of the platform is Musicbed.
Let’s explorer it.
What is Musicbed?
Musicbed is one of the largest and most renowned music licensing platforms specially created for creators and filmmakers. All the songs listed in Musicbed are premium quality and unique songs with amazing artists all over the world.
Before proceeding further, let me explain what is not a Musicbed?
Unlike other traditional platforms, Musicbed is not a free songs library for ordinary songs. It is rather the premium platform for which creators like you and me can pay to license music and use it anywhere in this online world.
You may have one common question: “Why should I go with this premium platform when I can get payment-free music from some other library?”
There is no issue in using that free music. The only problem with them is they are common and everyone is using them. Put another way. There is no real essence of creativity in that music.
Musicbed, on the other hand, gets monthly visits of around millions:
And the traffic is increasing day by day.
What does it mean?
Due to the quality of the songs, people are shifting towards Musicbed to enjoy evergreen songs without any legal conflicts.
As the music in Musicbed is created by artists all over the world, the music is not royalty-free.
However, once you buy their premium subscription and get any type of copyright strike on YouTube videos, etc, they will clear that strike within hours if not minutes.
And sometimes, if they don’t do so, then you can directly raise the ticket through their support system (more of that later).
So what to do if you are unable to invest in Musicbed right now?
Is There a Free Plan for Musicbed?
Though Musicbed does not provide licensed music in their free version, you do get to download selected songs as a watermarked form just like this:
But here’s the problem:
You can use the music and songs offline but not on any of the online media.
You can play it on your phone for yourself, for example, but you cannot upload it to any platform.
This is why the free plan is very limited. Unless you are downloading songs for the free chore, you will need a premium version.
But in the end, it’s all worth it when you can license any song/music in the world.
With that, let’s discuss some of the major features of Musicbed that you may find fascinating.
Musicbed Features
1. Unique music for individuals and filmmakers –
Musicbed is different than most music libraries out there.
Unlike providing creators with the same old music, they tend to contribute fresh and “never-heard-before songs”.
As the songs are created by real artists around the world, more new songs keep getting added time and again.
Therefore, you will not need to research interesting songs anywhere else.
With their smart search feature, you can punch in any song type or genre and they will show you all the relevant ones which can be played and downloaded within one click.
Do you want rock music? They have got you covered.
Want Jazz? Everything’s in there.
In fact, you can sort the music by:
- Instrument
- Genre
- Mood
- Artist
- Attribute
Etc.
2. Trusted and used by world’s top tier brands –
If the Musicbed songs are used by big brands and giant companies, then they are truly trusted without anyone’s approval.
Here is the screenshot of the companies that are the regular customer of Musicbed:
Besides this, the names also include McDonald’s, Under Armour, Google, and the list goes on and on.
Isn’t it great?
That’s why they are growing rapidly.
Therefore, if any random person prevents you from using Musicbed saying that the songs are not up to the mark, show the proof of these companies and he/she will gradually calm down.
Who knows many of Music bed’s music and songs might be used in brands commercials, etc.
3. Profound support –
There are many competing music licensing sites like Musicbed.
So, why are only a few very successful?
It’s because they solve their users’ dominant pain points.
Musicbed does the same through their exceptional support.
When I started surfing their site, I didn’t know how to create a free account and look through the watermarked songs.
To find out how it works, I simply went to their support page and got each of my questions solved within minutes.
Besides the support page, they also reply much quickly in the email if you have some specific queries that are not described on the support page.
Yet many of your problems related to operating Musicbed will be solved on the SUPPORT page itself.
I love the support system of very few companies and they are one of them.
4. Use music almost everywhere –
Most creators access Musicbed to use the licensed and copyright-free music on YouTubeand Facebook.
And once you buy the monthly subscription, they are all yours. They will tell you the names of all the platforms where you can use their music according to the pricing plan that you have chosen.
There will be some restrictions but besides that, everything will be fine.
As discussed earlier, once you buy the premium version, you can use the songs as a licensed version and no one can copyright that song.
If you are a YouTuber, this can be a holy grail for you.
5. Competitive pricing –
Musicbed comes with 5 different pricing methods:
- Individual (personal projects, $19/month)
- Business (Client, $99/month)
- Enterprise (Big brands)
- Non Profit (NGO & charities, $69/month)
- Wedding (Wedding & Reception film shooting, $79/month)
Besides these 5 plans, they also come with a bonus plan.
There are cases when a person is not yet ready to buy any of the subscription plans. In this case, he/she can directly add the selected songs to the cart and buy individual songs.
According to my experience, the individual plan is the most used in Musicbed. This is because there is high demand and raise in the no. of YouTubers day-by-day.
At last, you can’t go any wrong with $19 per month (especially if you have started generating a significant amount of revenue).
Conclusion
With this, let us end this guide with some useful wisdom.
Musicbed is great. I cannot say it is perfect because nothing is perfect.
It is better than most sites out there.
With their quality songs and jaw-dropping support, they tend to fulfill the requirements of any individual who is looking for some exclusive songs.
I guarantee you that after using their songs, you will never have to face copyright emails that sometimes seem heart-breaking.
