Survives Cancellation

Forever

Only content downloaded and used in published projects during an active subscription retains its license after cancellation.

Legis Music:

Lifetime license means one-time payment for perpetual use - verify that the license tier matches your specific use case before purchasing.

Stems are included with all tracks - useful for customization but also means you're responsible for how remixed versions are used.

Artlist:

Content licensed before November 2020 falls under different terms - those older licenses covered all use cases under a single plan. Current plans are more restrictive.

License does not survive cancellation for most plans - you must maintain an active subscription to keep using downloaded content.
