Royalty free music

It's been a while since I've used royalty free music for my football videos. Searching the net takes me hours to find good stuff at a reasonable price. So I thought I would throw it out here to see if anyone would highly recommend a site. Thanks in advance, Sam

this is the best stuff it allows you to set whatever length you need and make other changes to make it suit your needs and now that SonicFire 5 is out when you buy one music CD you get the Express version Free. the disks are kinda spendy but you get unlimited use and with the variations you will probably never run out of music.

If you want more control you can upgrade to the Scoring version and have complete creative control on a timeline with video.

Opuzz.com was about the cheapest site I could find with fairly good music. However I've been trying to find other stuff because I've gotten the few albums off there that suit my videos and its getting a bit stale reusing stuff. But if you haven't checked it out it may be worth a look.

1 CD $59
2 CDs $79
5 CDs $149
10 CDs $249
20 CDs $399

I think you have to enter a code to get the discounts but the site makes it pretty clear. I just don't think its done automatically.

To this point I've made videos as a hobby and can't afford to spend a good deal on music. These prices are reasonable.

Ah, how about Cinescore? It's got some VERY nice music, and offers virtually an endless number of possible arrangements. And with the various themes you can buy...you really cannot go wrong, for the money.

Check it out. It's incredible! I only wish that I had more time to learn it--what with the capabilities of Vegas and DVDA Pro, you almost need to win the lottery so you can take the time to learn all the features of this stuff. But check out Cinescore if you haven't already, you might really like it.
