YOUTUBERS BEWARE!!!
Music library is great but if you are a YouTuber, they will try to scam you into having to upgrade to a business plan once you've locked into your initial subscription. If you plan on having ANY personal shop links in your YouTube description, be prepared for copyright claims where Musicbed tries to blackmail you into upgrading if you want your video monetized... I've already removed the links that they had an issue with and they are still lagging on removing the copyright claims. Probably not for any channel that links a merch account to their YouTube either. Super deceiving as I literally just started my subscription with them and I'm already having a back-and-forth with customer service to get copyright claims removed from a video using music that I've purchased a license for. Be careful!

Hi there Kirsten, so sorry if there was any confusion when you selected a subscription plan! While we try to make it clear at checkout that our Personal subscriptions do not cover the promotion of any client, brand, or company, this mistake is completely understandable. Please note, these categories are in place to ensure you are legally covered and do not inadvertently violate copyright law. I assure you we are not intentionally withholding your claim clearance- an agent is actively working on resolving those claims right now but was slightly delayed due to an issue on YouTube's end. One of our copyright specialists has been investigating the issue and working to resolve it since your request came in this morning. I hope this has brought clarity to the situation. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or concerns, I would be happy to connect with you personally and discuss in more detail!
