<p><a href="https://magnatune.com/" title="Magnatune">Magnatune</a> is an American independent record label based in Berkeley, California. It was founded in 2003 by <a href="https://john.redmood.com/" title="John Buckman">John Buckman</a>.</p>
<p>When first set up music could be bought from Magnatune through a download interface on the website with a &quot;pay what you like&quot; pricing model. Later it was possible to purchase physical CDs and in 2007 complete albums and individual tracks could be bought through Amazon.com.</p>
<p>Magnatune moved to a membership plan in 2008 and in 2010 dropped the CD printing service. The subscription model offers monthly or lifetime membership. Members can download as much as they want, or with a streaming membership can stream as much as they want. Many download formats are available and all music is without DRM.</p>
<p>Magnatune encourages buyers to share up to three copies with friends. All of the tracks downloaded free of charge are licensed under the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons_license" title="Creative Commons">Creative Commons</a> Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike (BY-NC-SA) License.</p>
<p>It's legal to play Magnatune music on a non-commercial podcast without paying collecting society fees to organisations such as ASCAP, BMI or SoundExchange.</p>
