Are you a small Youtube creator? RUN!!! If you are a small YouTube creator who finances their channel through Patreon, the occasional sponsored video or affiliate links... *RUN!* After 20 hours of editing a video with a sponsored segment that was due on a certain day and uploading it to the YouTube studio, the video gets flagged with two copyright claims for MusicBed songs. When I go to clear them (which I shouldn't have to do to begin with), I am told that "The claim is not showing up on our end" (weird...) but also that "Because this channel's description has multiple links out to products/courses for purchase, an upgrade to a Business-level Subscription is needed to keep this video up and continue posting." As a reminder, the "individual plan" is advertised as "Perfect for freelance filmmakers, wedding filmmakers, YouTube creators, and podcasters." and covers "SOCIAL FOLLOWING Up to 250K subscribers, DISTRIBUTION : Web/Social, Podcast and Includes Monetization" But the best part comes when MusicBed describes what "links out to products/courses for purchase" are problematic. The two links that MusicBed wants me to remove are links to the channel's website and the channel Patreon's page. And what does MusicBed think I should be paying to have those links up in the description of my videos? 100$/month, ie 3x the cost of the individual plan supposed to be "Perfect for freelance filmmakers, wedding filmmakers, YouTube creators, and podcasters". MusicBed, you should really be clearer about who can buy your products and which one. Because if you are going to sell a service to a Youtube creator, you better believe that a lot of them will have a Patreon account and a website and probably even have the audacity to place those links in the description of their video... Now, as a result of MusicBed's shenanigans, my video containing a sponsored segment is late to publish, which is resulting in a penalty on the fee I receive. What a way to support creators MusicBed!!!

The BEST music platform I’ve been using Musicbed religiously for the last 5 years. Musicbed has always been the golden standard offering a premium experience. Their platform, dedication and music truly stand out - not only to professionals, but also to clients. What I also love is their commitment to supporting the music artists who contribute to the platform, ensuring everyone's success. If you're in need of high-quality music for your projects, I wholeheartedly recommend Musicbed.

Amazing array of music Musicbed has an amazing array of music from professional artists at a reasonable price. I've both licensed from them for my videos and have communicated with their support team multiple times and I've always had a good experience. Also, they now have an incredible option where you can "license any song in the world" (generally speaking, for a good chunk of change of course); that's awesome! Musicbed is my primary and first stop to license music!

Feels like scam You can't call it MONTHLY subscription if the customer can't terminate it after a few months of use. The company still forces me to pay for the whole year even if I canceled and don't hesitate to call it a monthly subscription, this is ridiculous. As a cheery on top - they claimed that the first month is free, but actually, you'll still make 12 payments for a year in total, they'll just move your subscription date one month forward to cover for the first "free" month. Never seen such dirty practices and sketchy morale anywhere except scam companies.

Shady business - stay away They trick you into paying for a month, but it turns out they lock you into paying monthly for the whole year. There is nothing you can do as a consumer - shady business! On top of that, you can't cancel until 1 month before the renewal..they are making sure people keep paying even if they don't use the product. I paid > $300 for a couple of tracks I used for 1 video.
