Can I distribute public domain content through Unchained Music?

Yes, you can distribute public domain content through Unchained Music, but with some conditions. Here's how it works:

  • Part of a Larger Work: Public domain content can be included as part of a larger work, such as a remix or adaptation. However, you generally cannot distribute it as a standalone work.
  • Proof of Public Domain: We may request proof that the content you're using is indeed in the public domain. This helps ensure that copyright is respected.
