Common use of Standard License Clause in Contracts

Standard License. The Standard License includes use of the Music in the following types of projects: iPhone/iPad/Android/Facebook apps, web videos (YouTube - including commercial rights, Vimeo, etc.), websites, podcasts, softwares, video games, slideshows, Powerpoint, Flash, animations, music on hold, wedding videos, corporate videos, and film festivals. It also includes broadcast of the music on Television and Radio (cue sheet required) and as long as it is not part of a Advertisement run on TV or Radio, in which case, the Television / Radio Advertising license would be required. The standard license also includes the reproduction of up to 1,000 copies of your project in physical, tangible products like CD’s, DVD’s, VHS tapes, Blu-ray, toys, and console games. The only exception to the above is that if your app/software/podcast/video or other downloadable digital product is available for sale (i.e. not free) or makes use of “in-app” purchasing, then a Mass Reproduction License is required, but only in the event that you distribute, or intend to distribute, more than 1,000 digital copies. The Mass Reproduction license grants you all of the same rights as the Standard License, but also includes the right to distribute up to either a) 10,000 copies OR b) UNLIMITED copies of your for-sale (i.e. not free) project, depending on the option chosen at the time of checkout. Digital products made available for free do not require a Mass Reproduction License. Free apps and games that allow in-app/in-game purchasing are considered paid (i.e. not free) for purposes of this license agreement and do require a Mass Reproduction License.
