What is Audio Network
Audio Network is a stock music licensing platform that provides pre-cleared music tracks for use in video, broadcast, advertising, digital content, and corporate media. It targets content creators, agencies, production teams, and broadcasters that need searchable music catalogs with clear licensing terms. The service focuses on music (rather than broad stock media) and supports licensing workflows for both individual creators and enterprise customers.
Large, curated music catalog
Audio Network provides a sizable catalog of production music with consistent metadata and categorization for common video and broadcast use cases. Search and filtering typically center on mood, genre, instrumentation, tempo, and usage context. This helps teams find usable tracks faster than sourcing from disparate composer sites or unmanaged libraries.
Clear licensing for media use
The platform is designed around pre-cleared licensing for synchronization in video and related media. This reduces the operational overhead of negotiating rights with multiple parties for each track. It is particularly relevant for organizations that need repeatable licensing processes and auditability across many projects.
Enterprise and broadcast workflows
Audio Network supports business-oriented purchasing and licensing models that fit agencies, production companies, and broadcasters. It commonly offers account-based access and licensing options suited to teams rather than only single-user subscriptions. This makes it easier to standardize music sourcing across multiple editors and productions.
Primarily music, not media
Despite being adjacent to stock media platforms, Audio Network is mainly focused on music licensing rather than offering a broad library of video clips, images, and templates. Buyers looking for a single vendor for multi-asset procurement may need additional providers. This can add complexity to procurement and rights management across asset types.
Licensing terms can vary
Licensing options may differ by intended use (e.g., online, paid advertising, broadcast, in-store, or global distribution) and by customer type. Teams may need to review terms carefully to ensure coverage for each channel and territory. This can slow down fast-turnaround projects if approvals are required.
Not tailored to custom scoring
Audio Network is built for selecting and licensing existing tracks rather than commissioning bespoke compositions. Projects that require unique themes, tight hit-point scoring, or iterative creative collaboration may find stock tracks limiting. In those cases, additional composer services or custom music production may be necessary.
