- Use public domain music. You can find them online with a search. It is best to use instrumentals because sometimes the vocals are re- copyrighted by a estate years after a court battle. For customers favorite song you would have to buy the copyrights permission from the publisher.
- good for you for wanting to do the right thing. you should look at the web sites for ASCAP and BMI - use google to find them. One or the other of them, I forget which, manages copyright licensing of songs that you want to use. You pay them according to some set plan each year, and then you are good to go.
