What This License Doesn't Cover:

1. Mass Production or Distribution: Song(s) under this license agreement cannot be included in any commercial product that is mass produced (100 or more units). A product release of more than 100 units requires a different license. Contact Philip Wesley at philipw@philipwesley.com with the specifics of your project for a quote.

3. Adult Themes: Song(s) licensed cannot be included in projects that may be inappropriate for children (containing violence, profanity or nudity). If your project contains any of these elements, but you still feel the music is appropriate, please contact Philip at philipw@philipwesley.com with the specifics.

4. Sharing, Trading, Downloading: Song(s) licensed cannot be redistributed, traded, made available for download, or otherwise transferred to anyone else. Nor can they be included in a project in that allows the end-customer to transfer the songs for personal use.

5. Reselling: Songs cannot be resold as songs. In other words, you can't license Philip’s music, create your own CD or DVD of those songs, and resell it as your own product. That is a blatant copyright violation.

Other stipulations:

1. Note that when you license a song, you don't own it. You are licensing it for use. There is a legal difference in the copyright sense. If you purchase a CD, obviously you own the CD - but you don't own the copyright to the songs themselves.

2. The songs you license cannot be the main content of your product (see #5 above). This license is designed to allow you to use Philip’s music simply to compliment your existing product or project.

3. This license covers a single user only. It cannot be transferred to another party.
