Frequently Asked Questions

What is royalty-free music?

Royalty-free music lets you pay once and use it forever. The composer keeps copyright; you receive a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual license to sync the music to your project without ongoing royalties.

How can I use royalty-free music from Scott Holmes Music commercially?

  • Commercial use requires a paid license: either Single Track or All Access. Both grant lifetime, worldwide rights. Our free CC BY-NC downloads are for personal/non-commercial use only and require credit.

Do I need to credit royalty-free music from Scott Holmes Music?

  • CC BY-NC (free): Credit required.
    Suggested: “Music [track title] by Scott Holmes Music – https://scottholmesmusic.com

  • Paid licenses: Credit not required (appreciated).

Can I use royalty-free music on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitch, and podcasts?

Yes. With a paid license, you can publish and monetize on all major platforms. CC BY-NC is fine for personal/non-commercial uploads with attribution.

What’s the difference between royalty-free Single Track and All Access?

  • Single Track: License one track for commercial use (lifetime).

  • All Access: One-time purchase that unlocks the entire library for unlimited commercial projects (lifetime).

 

What should I do if I get a YouTube Content ID claim on royalty-free music?

  • Check your license. If you have a paid license (Single Track or All Access), you’re covered.

  • Submit our form: go to the Copyright Claims page and include your order number (5–6 digits), YouTube video URL, and channel link. We’ll verify and whitelist your channel so the claim is removed and future claims don’t fire (usually within ~24 hours).

  • Using CC BY-NC (free)? Make sure your video description has the required credit. Send the form and we’ll review and withdraw the claim if the use complies—or help you upgrade to the correct license.

  • Other platforms (Instagram/Facebook, etc.)? Send the claim details via the same page and we’ll resolve it with the platform.

Are there restrictions on using royalty-free music from Scott Holmes Music?

You may not resell or redistribute the music as music, upload it to DSPs as your own release, register it in Content ID, or use it in AI/data-training sets. When in doubt, ask us.
