Licensing pop music for big productions makes sense since they have the budget for the big fees. But what if you plan to make only 11 copies? ZOOM hopes to address this problem by making music licensing feasible for small productions. To start off, you buy credits which gives you the rights to use the song for "personal use" for up to 25 copies. If you plan on broadcasting your production, you're out of luck for ZOOM doesn't cover that. More credits can be purchased as needed depending on how many copies you plan to make. The advantages of licensing music is to give you legal protection for being sued due to copyright infringement. ZOOM deals with all of the nitty-gritty details like getting approval from the record label and the publisher which can be a long and grueling process. The site is expected to go live in early October (um.. any day now?) and is in talks with EMI Music Publishing. So if your client insists they just have to have that song, ZOOM will make both of your lives easier.
