Sooo my plan was to replace the soundtrack with Royalty Free music. So I bought a CD of decent royalty free music, which cost $100. With or without donations I was going to do it.

And guess what – as it turns out, the CD might not be royalty free in *Canada*. So I called up RoyaltyFreeMusic’s support line. I had sent them an email beforehand, saying I hadn’t yet purchased the music as I didn’t want to pressure them into a defensive “no refund” stance, as that wasn’t what I was after. I just wanted to know what was up with royalties.

Well, as it turns out, I’m good. They have all rights on their music, and agencies such as the CMRRA are not supposed to collect royalties or funds on their behalf. CMRRA also returned me an email; and apparently they don’t have the songs in their database. So I’m good. Thank god. I was very close to just giving up entirely.
