I‘ve been working on podcast that I’m about to release on this site and in the process found some great sources for adding music to your own podcasts. If you plan on doing a professional podcast and you’re running an actual business then you don’t want to just copy some song off iTunes and throw it into your podcast, not only is it illegal, but it could get you in trouble down the road. You want to make sure that you have the rights to use the music or that it’s royalty free music.

Here’s some good sources I came across in my search…

• Opuzz.com – Purchase 10-second music clips for as little as $4.99
• The Music Bakery
• Premium Beat
• Podsafe Music – As cheap as 99 cents a clip.
• Sound Dogs – For all kinds of sound clips like police sirents, voices, booms, and bangs.

Have a good source for podcast music or sound effects? Leave a comment and share it with the rest of us.
