What are sychronization licenses and royalties?

A synchronization license is permission to incorporate a musical work and/or sound recording into an audiovisual work, such as a movie, television show, video game, or music video. Another example of where music is incorporated into an audiovisual work is the video content created and posted by users of platforms such as YouTube. The MLC is not involved in synchronization licenses or royalties.
