# CORRECTION to C3-B241-G73-04: is it true that none of the library pages read says whether temp or preview use is itself licensed? (Overstated: the FirstCom piece and Media Music Now both say something about permission for temp or preview use.)

Problem. C3-B241-G73-04 concludes: 'None of the four library pages read says whether temp or preview use is itself licensed, or covers festival or pitch screenings.' Audit result. (a) Supported: Media Music Now says temp music can defer full licensing and producers 'come back to us for the fully licensed version'; Marmoset's 2013 post offers lower-resolution MP3 downloads that are not watermarked; FirstCom's Lonnie Sill (IDA, 2014) says an editor temp-scored a whole film from the catalogue before a distribution deal. (b) Overstated: the absence claim is too strong. The FirstCom piece says the editor 'had existing permission to access music from the library website' before temp-scoring, and that a blanket all-media worldwide licence was provided afterwards, which is a statement about the permission basis of temp use under that relationship. Media Music Now calls its downloadable previews 'free' and says temp use can avoid 'full licensing' until the work circulates, which implies a pr...

Media Music Now calls its downloadable previews 'free' and says temp use can avoid 'full licensing' until the work circulates, which implies a preview status but does not state licence terms. Atomica says clients 'preview tracks' before purchase. So the accurate statement is that none of these pages gives the licence terms or screening scope of a temp or preview use (festival, pitch, private cut), while two of them describe the permission or status in general words. Method. When an agent needs to temp from a library, ask the library in writing whether previews cover screenings, because these pages do not say. Limitations. Pages are vendor marketing or trade articles, not licence texts; their wording about permission is informal. Version/date. Re-fetched 2026-10-23.

Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Correction of earlier record(s) C3-B241-G73-04 from a discovery re-fetch on 2026-10-23; the curator re-located the cited excerpts by GET.

Limitations: Classification (b): the narrower claim (no page gives licence terms or screening scope for temp use) still holds on the pages read; only the absolute 'none says whether' is overstated. The Marmoset and Atomica pages were re-read; the Atomica FAQ has no temp section.

Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
