Royalty-free music, copyright-free music, and DMCA-free music may seem similar, but they have slight differences which are important to note. Check out our guide below to learn about the restrictions with each type, what can be used for streaming or video creation, and to decide which free music you can use on YouTube or Twitch.
This music is free of royalties, which are ongoing payments required for the use of the content. This does not necessarily mean the music is entirely free to use, but rather that it will be free from future royalty payments. This type of music may require you to purchase it once-off, or purchase a license to access a library of royalty-free music. However, it could also be entirely free to use and require no payments whatsoever. Make sure you check the terms of the website you are using to be safe!
In simple terms, this is music that does not have a copyright attached to it and it is in the public domain. This could be due to a copyright expiring, or due to a creator surrendering the copyright over their content. Often, you can do what you want with this type of music and it is legally safe to use — however, this does not always apply. Some “Copyright-Free” music playlists on YouTube for example have restrictions, meaning they cannot be used outside of YouTube itself. Other copyright-free music may not be used in monetized content. As always, it’s safest to read the terms of the music in full before using it to avoid any legal issues.
While you may often hear this term, particularly in reference to Twitch, it is basically in line with the definition for copyright-free music. DMCA itself refers to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a specific USA copyright law pertaining to digital media. It’s introduction has been controversial but it aims to protect and criminalize misuse of copyrighted content. Similar to the previous examples, you would need to check out the terms of use with the music you would like to use to ensure it is safe to play during streams or other video content.
