Before you buy
Where do I start?
Tell us what you are making and we will narrow it down for you. Or start from a recordist whose work you already know. Some release here and nowhere else.
Can I use these commercially?
Yes. One licence covers commercial use, including client work, broadcast and games. No subscription, and nothing expires.
Film, games, audiobooks, all of it?
All of it. The licence does not care what you are making. Audiobooks, podcasts, film, television, games, theatre, advertising, installations.
