The price of all audio products on 100Audio is determined during the review process, including the actual duration of the audio, the quality, the complexity, the potential demand, and so on.

Why is there unified pricing?

If the musicians can set the price, there could be a large number of 10¢ low-quality music on 100Audio; if there is a lot of low-cost music, 100Audio will become a defective, fake market, where there is no longer quality music, but rather becomes a battlefield for prices. High-quality musicians will not be able to survive in this.

How is the audio product authorized?

100Audio has five kinds of price and authorization for every single item. Choose the proper license for your music (personal license, business license, unlimited license) to meet your project specific needs.
The length of music and comprehensive quality will also affect the price of music.
For example, when the basic price for a standard license is $50, you can find a shorter length of the same license cost $30 or a longer length of the same license cost $60.
In order to protect the rights and interests of all parties, after selling “music authorization 4 – business” and “music authorization 5 – unlimited” licenses, the vendor needs to sign a contract.
