Music is an essential element of any video. The right kind of music helps make a video more powerful, emotive and effective. The internet is home to a number of royalty-free music sources that enable users to download music to use for making videos.

Whilst these sites offer royalty-free music, some require payment. Sites that offer, or claim to offer, total free music can be questionable in their authenticity. In many cases, it can be difficult or even impossible to know if the original artist agreed to have their work there.
