Podcast Intro/Outro Music?

[soundphile]

Where can I find the best deal on buying music for my podcast? Does anyone else have tunes in their podcasts?

Sound Ideas has a lot of material that you can get for a relatively good price.

This is an affiliate link to their podcast production tool kit, which will save you $20. (Disclosure: If you buy from there I make a few bucks)

For $99, you get 1,000 mp3 files of Production Elements, Royalty Free Music Tracks and Sound Effects. I saw them at Podcast Expo and think this a good buy for podcasters who want legal sounds and music to add to the podcast.

How does the law stand if you borrow these cds from a friend and use them for a production?

[Alex]

I'm not a lawyer so this is not any kind of legal advice.

My guess is that when you buy the CD you are buying a license to use the sounds. If you borrow the CD you don't have any license rights, so it seems to me like you would be using the content without a license and be in violation of their copyright. That's just my common sense take on the issue, although I have no idea on what the real legal opinion would be on this.
