Shutterstock Partners With Rumblefish To Add Music To Stock Content Library
Shutterstock, one of the higher profile contenders in stock photos and video, has added music to their offerings with the help of Rumblefish. However they'll also be taking direct submissions of music for licensing. Users can browse by mood, genre or tempo and two licenses are available with flat-rate pricing. Overall it looks like a well-thought-out service for those seeking music.
Shutterstock Music is now available to all site users with over 60,000 tracks available via a deal with Rumblefish. They're also seeking indie musicians and producers to submit music.
