audiomachine
Pros
Fully self-serve checkout — search, cart, license selection, and payment all happen online with no negotiation or waiting on a sales rep
Transparent, published per-license pricing for nine distinct use cases, from $3.99 personal use up to $399.99 for a small-business website
Proven industry track record: catalog placements in major trailers (The Last of Us Season 2, Better Man), AAA video game launches (Call of Duty Mobile, Alan Wake 2, Star Wars: Hunters), and global ad campaigns (Google, BMW, Volvo, Coca-Cola)
Every purchase includes both an uncompressed AIFF and an MP3 of the track plus the license document, delivered instantly via email/account
Offers a YouTube Content ID claim-release process for buyers of the monetization license or social bundle
Cons
No self-serve tier for large studio, broadcast, or agency-scale sync licensing — those cases must go through a separate contact form
Each license covers a single project/song combination, so reusing a track across multiple projects means purchasing separate licenses
No subscription or unlimited-download plan is offered; every track/use combination is priced and purchased individually
The Small Business Website license is restricted to companies with under $1 million in annual gross revenue, so larger businesses don't qualify for that tier
