Thanks to popularity of DV, many video makers think they can just steal popular or even copyrighted music & use it in their movies. It's just music right ? Well, what's the difference between you stealing music & some other DV filmmaker stealing parts of your movie & using it in their movie ? It's all art & it's all protected.

Here is a solution - use this music for free and don't worry.

All you have to do is credit the songwriter - Peter John Ross (www.sonnyboo.com) and the music is yours to use for free. They may not be "Beatles" songs, but they can be the difference between your movie getting popular, or getting a "cease & desist" order. And there is no more music for sale on this site or any other site from Peter John Ross. These compositions are just a donation to the public domain.
