Royalty free music is a pain. I wanted to licence a music track for use for YouTube and a podcast, but it's just unclear if that requires different licences, and if it's a series, it may only cover a certain number of episodes and expire after some time before you have to buy again.

I did discover icons8's free music selection which is actually very good: https://icons8.com/music/

I totally understand your pain with licensing music (as a filmmaker myself). That's why we've worked hard on removing those issues for content creators. Filmstro music is worldwide and in perpetuity (so you don't have to keep re-licensing any music you purchase/export). Also, we make it very clear what you can use the music for - as a matter of fact, we wanted to make music more accessible for content creators hence why we (1) released royalty free 100% youtube cleared static tracks and (2) subscriptions that allow users to access loads of music for one annual price.
