The fact is that according to the explanation of Fiverr's FAQ, if you do not say or indicate anything about the license and rights in the description, then after selling the music (for composer and producer), the author receives all the rights to this music. And that's the problem. With music, things work differently than with other typical licenses. And I see this problem on all freelance services. 😩

Has tha same question. I just read the Fiverr FAQ post about commercial license and that's what they say: It turns out that if you want to retain the rights as an author and, for example, distribute your music, you should make it clear in the description. And according to the description, this license completely transfers the ownership rights to the original music, that is, it takes away the rights to it from you. But here there is another question: are these rights specifically for this file and the essence of its content or for the entire melody and idea? The topic is very delicate and needs a wider consideration. On popular platforms such as AudioJungle or Shutterstock the cost of the license depends on what it is for. There is a another concept of "sync" licensing. A music synchronization license, or "sync" for short, is a music license granted by the holder of the copyright of a particular composition, allowing the licensee to synchronize ("sync") music with some kind of visual media output (film, television shows, advertisements, video games, accompanying website music, movie trailers, etc.). It makes more sense and this is the type of license that should be used to write music for this type of content. And some of the distributors through whom you release your music provide such services and offers to potential customers, companies, etc. This is a big problem for me. I approach writing music very delicately and always write it with meaning and give it a special meaning. And therefore, the complete alienation of author rights according to the current simple license on Fiverr should be expensive, as a minimum of $50.
