 How does Be Cool Records work? Be Cool Records is an independent internet-based record label. All Be Cool Records are free to download for personal listening however we also licence the music, accept donations, sell physical products, and display advertisements. Your donations are the lifeline of Be Cool Records. We want this music to be listened to by as many people as possible while generating a high amount of web traffic right here to our own website. This is the essence of the Be Cool Records business model. Once visitors are here enjoying the music for free, they might consider our advertisers, donating to the original artist, buying our physical products, and/or enjoying the added content we offer on our website, such as Youtube videos and free beats. Why would someone donate money for an album they can download free? Many people are driven by their own personal moral standards. Ever see someone throw a dollar at a musician on the street? Some throw a quarter, others a five dollar bill, and others just listen. We support all of the above. If you cannot afford to buy music we still want you enjoying our records to the fullest possible extent. Our listeners offer payment when they feel inclined to do so, in any amount they deem appropriate. Can I use Be Cool Records music for any purpose I want? No. This is original copyrighted music that should only be downloaded for personal listening enjoyment. It is unlawful to re-sell this music or use it commercially without written permission. We welcome and encourage any requests for licensed use of the music. Copying it for friends and family is fine, but please encourage them to visit this site so they can get the latest goodies and perhaps make a donation, click an ad, or buy a physical product.
