"Royalty-Free" refers to a type of licensing that allows individuals to use creative works, such as music, images, or videos, without having to pay ongoing royalties or fees after the initial purchase. This means that once you buy a royalty-free item, you can use it in your projects without worrying about additional costs each time you use it. Typically, royalty-free works come with specific usage rights outlined in a license agreement. These rights can vary, so it's important to read the terms carefully. Many creators and businesses use royalty-free content to save money and simplify the process of obtaining media for their projects.
