A royalthy paid music CD only cost about $100 for about 10 tracks but you can use it for a lifetime.
Some are paid as you use in 30 secs block. Try Big Bang Fuzz at Tg Pagar, there's also a couple of other music library available.
Adobe and Sony has some software to help with that but can cost a hole in your pocket.
there r mechanical rights for reproduction of music. Broadcast rights may belong to different parties too. So even if it is royalty free music, read the T&C carefully!
