Using Someone Else's Music on Your Web Site (Or other products)

​As far as  music is concerned Copyright law doesn’t care whether you’re charging for the material or giving it away, the law still reads the same.
 
ASCAP and BMI are the grand poohbahs of copyrighted music and licensing generally goes through them.
 
For the latest legal information, check out the ASCAP info at http://www.ascap.com/~/media/655449c494b748ba89edc4864655e1b6.pdf

You might also want to look for free, royalty free music.

You can purchase it on CDs or as digital downloads for commercial usage. Check out:

There’s also a ton of it on the web that falls under the Creative Commons category.
