When will I receive my order after purchasing?

Immediately after making your purchase, you will be taken to the 'Thank you for your custom' page. From here, if you have purchased royalty free music from us, click on the 'My Control Panel' link. Once in your control panel, you can access and download your track immediately by clicking on the 'My downloads' link at the top of the page.

If for any reason you leave the 'Thank you for your custom' page before accessing your download(s), you can get to 'My Control Panel' from the right hand column once logged into your account (underneath the member login area).

If you have purchased any other service such as an on hold package, voice over or audio production, a Media Music Now representative will contact you shortly.

What is Royalty Free Music?

Royalty free music is a simple method of quickly licensing stock music or 'library music' as it sometimes referred to, for broadcast and multimedia production including TV, Film, websites, video, podcasts and much more, usually for a one-time fee.

The terms of the license can vary considerably from vendor to vendor. Some royalty free music licenses contain many limitations of use, whereas others contain few or no limitations.

For information about licensing royalty free music and the copyright implications involved, please read more in our articles section.

Why do I need to pay for music and who gets the money?

Our revenue is split 50/50 between the music maker and us. All of our music makers are independent composers, producers and bands that rely on distributors like us for their income. Without earning money from their music, composers are unable to produce high quality professional music. By purchasing music through Media Music Now you are supporting them and us, enabling us to improve our service and continue to provide revenue for our composers, artists, bands and producers.

Why don't you have mainstream chart music?

Mainstream chart music is too expensive and very complicated for us to license. Collecting royalties for mainstream music is the responsibility of publishers, record labels and royalty collecting agencies. For this reason it is not cost effective for us to sell mainstream music.
