iDVD / DVDSP/Soundtrack Pro - Royality free music/themes etc.
To save a bit of time, was planning on taking a idvd/dvdsp an dusing it for some dvds which will be sold commercially - is the music/themes royalty free? i know the themes are, but what about the music in a dvd them menu?

Is there a good site for free royalty music?

cheers
 
Wavtracks is a good price. US$60 for 800 tracks (quite a few are 15 sec/30 sec/3 minute variations of the same track) if you select the "MP3 on a single DVD" option and there's a whole selection perfect for transitions.

The licence agreement says (amongst other things):

Do you really want a commercial DVD you've made (and hope to sell) going out with theme music supplied by the basic software package?

I realize the poster above me did a little thread resurrection, but I wanted to point out that I recently picked up SmartSound SonicFire Pro and I'm quite impressed. There's a free version of the software to try out. It basically can recut the music to any length you want and a variety of moods and variations. There was a sale on music albums at $33 each that ended a few days ago, but by the sounds of it, the music goes on sale frequently.
