I've been teaching Digital Media Productions to high school students for the past 3 years. I just found out our district (4 High Schools) pays $8K a year to Killer Tracks in order to have a district license on their music library.
1. I was wondering it's worth paying that amount each year when I could use that money towards new equipment or other expenses to build my class?
2. Is it better to go without the license and just have my students make their own music, get in touch with local artist, or event ask fellow classmates' bands?
3. What, if any, are the guidelines of posting videos on youtube or any other online host that use copyrighted material?
If you could get back to me before September 1st that would be great! THANKS!
