Music Rights & Commercial License Policy

Last updated: May 2026

1. Purpose

This Music Rights & Commercial License Policy explains who owns Generated Music on Vybe Studio and what users may do with songs, instrumentals, lyrics, stems, and other outputs.

2. Platform Ownership Model

Vybe Studio uses a platform-owned, user-licensed rights model. Unless a separate written agreement says otherwise, Vybe Studio owns, controls, or retains all available rights in Generated Music created through the Service to the maximum extent permitted by law. Users receive only the license rights described in this Policy.

3. Free Plan Rights

Free Plan users receive a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, worldwide license to use Generated Music for personal, private, internal, experimental, or non-commercial purposes.

Free Plan users may:

• Listen privately.
• Save songs in their Vybe Studio library.
• Share non-commercial preview links where enabled.
• Use songs for personal inspiration or testing.
• Post short non-monetized examples if the post does not promote a business, product, service, paid channel, paid event, or monetized account.

Free Plan users may NOT:

• Monetize Generated Music.
• Upload Generated Music to music distributors.
• Sell, license, lease, transfer, or sublicense Generated Music.
• Use Generated Music in paid ads, client work, films, games, podcasts, commercial social media, monetized YouTube channels, TikTok monetization, streaming platforms, stock libraries, sample packs, beat stores, NFTs, or brand campaigns.
• Claim ownership of Generated Music.
• Register Generated Music with copyright offices, PROs, distributors, Content ID systems, neighboring rights organizations, or royalty collection systems.

4. Paid Plan Commercial Rights

Paid Plan users receive a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide commercial-use license to use eligible Generated Music created while their Paid Plan is active and paid in full.

Paid Plan users may:

• Upload eligible songs to music distributors.
• Monetize eligible songs on streaming platforms, subject to distributor rules.
• Use eligible songs in YouTube videos, podcasts, social media, ads, games, apps, films, trailers, live streams, websites, presentations, and brand content.
• Use eligible instrumentals as background music.
• Deliver eligible songs to clients as part of paid creative services.
• Edit, remix, master, arrange, and combine eligible Generated Music with human-created material.
• Publicly perform eligible songs, subject to venue, PRO, and licensing rules.

5. Paid Plan Limits

Paid Plan commercial rights do NOT include:

• Ownership of Generated Music.
• Exclusive rights unless expressly purchased under a separate written agreement.
• The right to claim Vybe Studio transferred copyright ownership.
• The right to use infringing, unauthorized, or illegal Input.
• The right to clone or imitate real artists, celebrities, private people, or protected voices without permission.
• The right to register Generated Music as wholly human-authored if AI-generated portions must be disclosed.
• The right to upload Generated Music into Content ID or similar rights-control systems unless Vybe Studio expressly allows it in writing.
• The right to train competing models with Generated Music or platform outputs.
• The right to resell Generated Music as standalone sample packs, model-training datasets, or AI training content.
• The right to represent that Generated Music is guaranteed unique, copyrightable, non-infringing, or accepted by distributors.

6. Exclusive Licenses

Vybe Studio may offer exclusive licenses for selected songs or instrumentals under a separate paid written agreement. Unless you receive a written exclusive license signed by Vybe Studio, all licenses are non-exclusive.

7. Commercial Rights After Cancellation

If you generated eligible music while your Paid Plan was active and your account was in good standing, you may continue using that eligible music commercially after cancellation, unless:

• You violated the Terms.
• Payment failed, was refunded, or was charged back.
• The song used unauthorized Input.
• A third-party claim, provider restriction, or legal issue requires restriction.
• The applicable plan terms stated otherwise at purchase.

8. Human Authorship & Copyright Registration

AI-generated music may not qualify for copyright protection unless a human contributes sufficient original authorship. Users are responsible for determining whether their edits, lyrics, vocals, arrangements, production, performance, mixing, mastering, or other human contributions support copyright registration.

9. Royalties

Unless a separate written agreement states otherwise, Vybe Studio does not collect royalties from Paid Plan users' commercial exploitation of eligible Generated Music. However, Vybe Studio retains ownership/control of platform-generated outputs and may continue using the material under the rights reserved in these Terms.

10. Attribution

Attribution is not required for Paid Plan commercial use unless stated in a plan, promotion, or separate agreement. Free Plan public sharing, where allowed, should include attribution such as: "Created with Vybe Studio."
