MIDI FILE USAGE REQUIREMENTS

As of 11 March 2009, I no long offer Audio or Data CDs. Rendered audio versions of my MIDI files will have to be made by the user (except as noted below for Sales). However, a one-time royalty free license fee still applies to any commercial use of my MIDI files whether rendered, or not, to audio.

FEES

NOTE: By single use, I mean for website background or newsletters, greeting cards, and video demos. Multiple use means those usages of my MIDI files or rendered audio file versions of them used in bundled (or application embedded) sales distributions such as games, products or applications,

For the commercial single use of my MIDI files only, the fee is $5 each. For commercial multiple use, the fee is 1 cent per $1 of sales per file used.

For the commercial single use of any rendered audio versions of my MIDI files, the fee is $10 each. For the commercial multiple use, the fee is 5 cents per $1 of sales per file used.

All fees are a one-time only requirement and non-refundable. Payments of single use fees are required prior to use, and for multiple use fees, payments must be not later than yearly [by 1 February] or for each 10,000 sales, whichever comes first.

PAYMENT METHODS

Payments must be in United States dollars ($) and can only be accepted by check (personal, or bank draft/cashier’s from a U.S bank or credit union) or money order (U. S. Postal. or International). Sorry, but I cannot accept credit or debit cards. For checks, please allow up to five business days for processing. I will email acknowledgment of payments received if you include your email address. If you don’t then I will mail you a confirmation letter of acknowledgement.
