Envato Elements vs PremiumBeat

When we talk about free royalty audio, there are multiple websites that can offer different soundtracks to be used. Videos without background sound are almost just a few.

There are some sound libraries from Youtube and Facebook that can help you to find free music, but the music there is quite limited. Therefore sometimes it is needed to pay for more extense music libraries. Shutterstock has PremiumBeat as their sound library. And as in the comparison of Envato Elements vs Shutterstock, Shutterstock aims to be a bit higher content quality website. Premiumbeat offers different soundtracks that seem to be good quality, but the price is a lot higher than Envato Elements. So again, the question is, which would be your need for content creation and what audio are you looking for? Envato Elements has a wide variety of audio that can be used for different digital projects. The negative aspect that I see on Envato Elements, that some of the audio content is already preregistered, and you will have to keep showing the audio license on Youtube for certain files. So that means, that yes you have the license, but have to show it again to Youtube. It is double work. When I use Envato Elements audio, I search for those soundtracks that are not registered on Youtube, to avoid this extra work.
