ARTYFILE grants a Synchronization/Master Use License. A Synchronization/Master Use License allows music to be used in timed relation to moving picture. A moving picture can be defined as a slideshow, video or a film. Artyfile offers two types of exclusive music assets: Artyfile Basic and Artyfile Limited Edition.

We accept Credit card, Paypal, Apple Pay, Giropay, EPS.

With the purchased song, the file is available for download as a high-resolution WAV file with 24bits and 44100Hz. The Download Preview song, can be downloaded by anyone as an MP3 file at 128 kbps as an example.

Artyfile Basic is a high-quality, standalone music track. Each Artyfile Basic includes full sync rights, making it perfect for use in films, videos, and content creation without any subscription obligations. Whether for background music, social media posts, or professional videos, this music is crafted by the world’s leading artists, composers, and studios (such as Abbey Road Studios and the London Symphony Orchestra). With a range of genres, each track is available for direct download in WAV or MP3 format.

Artyfile Limited Edition includes all the benefits of Artyfile Basic and goes further by adding ownership shares in the music’s master rights. Each Limited Edition Artyfile is represented by a secure Music NFT that allows owners to profit from global streaming revenues and sync rights. Unlike typical NFTs, these can be purchased with traditional currencies (Euro, Dollar, Pound) and serve as a valuable investment opportunity, enabling you to trade and earn from music’s potential growth and worldwide streaming.

You can use the purchased song as often as you like.

Your client is covered by your license and can use the Project anywhere. You and your clients can present and/or play the Project publicly, distribute it in all existing means of media, websites, social networks, or other data storage devices. Artyfile is made for people creating videos. Therefore, the Assets can’t be used as standalones (for example audio or footage only) without being part of a video. This means you can’t in any way use, record, perform, present, publicly perform, copy, distribute in any manner, transfer, share, sell or give a license to the Assets as standalones.

You can freely use Artyfile music in your YouTube videos; however, direct monetization by you isn’t possible and that's the powerful part of our model. Direct channel monetization is disabled for videos using our music because we collect all ad revenue via YouTube's Content ID. This allows us to pool the earnings and pay you a share not just from your video, but from every single use of the song worldwide. You trade direct, one-time ad revenue for a much larger, long-term passive income stream from a global asset.

At Artyfile, this means after purchase, you can use the music in your projects without extra fees. Artyfile ensures fair and direct payment to all artists involved, maintaining our commitment to exceptional quality. A 'royalty-free' license is like renting a car: you pay once to use it, but you never own it or profit from it. Artyfile offers ownership: it's like buying a share in a car rental company. You can still drive the car (use the music), but you also earn money every time someone else rents it. It's the shift from being a consumer to being an owner.

Yes, you can also use the purchased music in podcasts.

Music NFTs are kind of like digital ownership certificates for a song or piece of music. Imagine that you’re not just buying a copy of a song but also receiving a digital certificate that proves you own a share of it. This ownership is written into a blockchain, which is more secure than traditional contracts and makes tampering virtually impossible. It’s similar to owning a unique piece of art or a rare collectible card, but in this case, it’s music. With Music NFTs, you can acquire rights to a song, such as earning revenue from streaming or its use in films, videos, or commercials – going beyond just listening to the music.

A blockchain is kind of like a digital, public ledger or a chain of building blocks, where each new block stores information that can’t be changed. Imagine each transaction or record as a page in a book, where every page is securely linked to the next. No one can alter a single page without changing all the others – and that would be extremely difficult. This linked structure creates a highly secure and tamper-resistant system. For example, no one can secretly make changes, because the entire 'book' is public, verifiable, and any modification has to be confirmed by a network of computers.
