What it is
A catalog of original music by independent artists under open Creative Commons licenses; the site has sections for video, podcasts and education. The license is shown on the track's page, and a filter helps you pick the kind of use you need. Some licenses prohibit commercial use (NonCommercial), so check the license and any credit requirement before you publish. The FAQ has a separate answer for when you're not sure you have the right to use a track.
