Podsafe Musical Idents
As mentioned on last week's show we're in the market for podcast intros (idents as we call them). We've had some great listener contributions from Dean and Linda and we'd like more. All you have to do is record yourself saying "This is a download from the 91Èȱ¬ for more information visit our blog at bbc.co.uk - slash -blogs - slash - pods and blogs" and send it in.
We've previously fought shy of letting people use music in the intros for legal reasons, but we're going to take some baby steps and say music is OK if you own the exclusive rights to it (i.e. you made the music yourself, it isn't a cover of another song or filled with copyright samples) and you give us written permission to use it royalty free. We will of course give full credit to any work we use.
If you are interested, send in your intro to podsandblogs@bbc.co.uk as an mp3 with a note granting us permission to use it and a phone number where we can reach you at. Please keep it to under 30 seconds. Naturally we can't promise to use everything sent in.
