Making recordings available on your own website

Pre-recorded downloads or streaming

Making music available from your own site means you will need to apply for your own license.  This does not include embedding a video form a third party site like YouTube, which does not require a licence (see above).

There are a few different types of license for using music online depending on: 

  • How the music will be used 
  • The amount of usage you expect

But we expect that the vast majority of our members will find their needs covered by a Limited Online Music license (LOML).

Livestreaming

If you are going to be hosting a livestream via your own website, then you will need a Small Online Live Concert Licence for ticketed events or a Limited online music licence (LOML) for non-ticketed events. See below for more details on both types of licence.
