Question About Buzzsprout? Ask Megan!
*************************************

This week, we had a question about background music:

"Hi. Can you use background music (instrumentals)? Thank you."
Music in podcasts can be tricky! The short answer here is yes,
you technically can add instrumental background music to your
podcast. But, you might not want to!

First, you need to make sure that you own the rights to any music
you add to your podcast. Otherwise, your show could get flagged
for copyright issues and be removed from directories!

Even if you own the rights to the music, some directories may
interpret your show as music instead of a podcast and remove your
listing completely.

Both of these can be big headaches for podcasters! I recommend
sticking to intro and/or outro music to be safe and reaching out
to a legal advisor if you have specific copyright questions.

For more about including music in your podcast, check out this
article: Can I have music in my podcast? (

I'm so thankful to be at this again for another year. It's been a
joy to be in your inbox for 2024, and I'm excited to see your
podcast grow in 2025!

Until next week, keep podcasting!

Megan
