6.1. Download Licence — Personal Listening Only

When a fan downloads a track from AudioMama, the artist grants that fan a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to play and listen to the recording for private, non-commercial purposes only. The downloaded file is for the fan's own listening enjoyment.

The licence does not grant the fan any right to:

  • use the music in any commercial context (including but not limited to advertising, marketing, brand content, paid social media, films, television, streaming productions, video games, podcasts that generate revenue, retail or hospitality spaces, public performance, or background music in any commercial premises);
  • upload, redistribute, share, broadcast, or otherwise publicly perform the recording;
  • sample, remix, edit, modify, mash up, or create derivative works without separate written permission from the artist;
  • sell, rent, lease, sublicense, or otherwise transfer the recording or any rights in it;
  • remove or alter any metadata, watermarks, or ownership information embedded in the file;
  • use the recording to train machine-learning, AI, or audio-generation models of any kind.

All rights not expressly granted to the fan are reserved to the artist. Any commercial or extended use beyond personal listening requires the artist's separate written consent — AudioMama can put fans in touch with artists for licensing enquiries.
