I know there's Luke Hits. There's also Taxi, but that costs to join.

You're welcome! :)

I used standard HTML code to link. For example:

[a href="http://www.taxi.com" target="_blank"]This is a link to taxi.[/a]

produces the same type of link I posted before. (Replace the square brackets ([ and ]) with < and > accordingly.) It will launch a link to Taxi another window.

HTH,

mD:
Would you possibly know how to find how much a company like Pump Audio charges for a 60 minute musical (backing track) clip to use on a Radio Commercial.
Thanks

60...minutes? Isn't that a bit...much? ;)

If I remember correctly, Pump Audio mentioned that they you will receive 50% of the license fees and royalties associated with the music you submit. (It will all depend on what's agreed upon.)

Be also aware that you have no control over when and where any audio you submit to Pump Audio is used; just a little heads-up in case you are a control freak over your projects. (Not sure if they have any porn customers, so... LOL )

However, note that regardless of where and when the audio is used, you'll still get what's due to you monetarily and you still have control over the original project. If a customer to Pump Audio wants exclusive use of your music for their project, Pump Audio will help negotiate a deal between you and the customer.
