Where do you get background music for videos without claim issues
I have started editing short videos for a small YouTube channel and keep running into copyright claims on background tracks. What sources do you use for music that stays safe on YouTube, and how do you check the license terms before publishing?

I went through the same thing last year. What helped me most was reading the license page before downloading anything rather than after a claim shows up. For a while I used InAudio, mostly for vlog intros and a couple of client clips. Each track comes with loops and 15, 30 and 60 second edits, which saved me some trimming in post. There is a monthly plan at $7.99 and single track licenses if you only need one piece for a project. If you want to verify the terms yourself, the conditions for their royalty free music are listed on the site and are worth reading against what your platform allows. I have had no claims so far, but I still keep the license files saved for each video in case something changes later.
