AudioMicro.com - Royalty Free Sounds

If you want something for free, look that up right at the web. If you want something on the cheap, look to the web too. The internet has changed the way businesses operate. Services once only available in uber expensive software are now free and open source. Ideas get exchanged and everyone has a say and a chance to make it big. AudioMicro is a new startup hoping to change the way music is licensed. It offers a bargain for musicians and businesses. It's a collection of user-generated, high quality stock music and sound effects, available for low prices online. Artists upload their music for a buck and movie studios or entertainment houses can use their tracks for a lot more (yet still be a bargain for them). The idea is to create a site for stock audio content, similar to stock photography sites. Joining is free, so sign up, license your content at AudioMicro.com, and make your music productions be heard by everyone.

“AudioMicro is a revolutionary collection of user-generated royalty-free stock music, sound effects, production music, production elements and music cues. Finally, high quality audio content is available at unbelievable prices with no hidden costs or fees. “

AudioMicro is an interesting business model that allows artists exposure while entertainment producers get another source for sounds while not having to spend their entire wallet.

Will AudioMicro capture the audience (ie, quality artists and quality buyers) they’re seeking? Is it a viable business model? Will artists be satisfied with the royalty-free media system?
