To legally use copyrighted music in the UK, you must first become a member of MCPS-PRS by applying for membership. Once a member, you can then apply for a DVD1 license which allows use of any music in that category as long as the artist is notified a week in advance. Royalty rates for use vary based on the type of DVD and whether using the published dealer or retail price. While MCPS-PRS licensing is comparatively inexpensive, alternatives include composing original music or obtaining direct permission from artists through organizations like Copyleft.
