Please Clarify 10% Rule
If anyone knows for sure and can clarify on this for me, I thank you in advance. In class, I wrote down there is a 10% rule on using CD music (that we own) w/in our Dig. Stories. Now that I am about to begin, and have narrowed down a variety of tunes I may use, I am wondering is that 10% we may use from an entire CD, or is that 10% of any one song? In other words, for example, if I wanted to use a few tunes from one CD, am I only allowed to use 10% total of the entire CD or just as long as it is only 10% of any one song?

I believe the rule is that you can use 10% of each song. Although, Dr. Franklin did mention that you are allowed to use as much of the song as you would like if you have bought and own either the individual song or entire CD. If I am wrong, please someone let me know because this is what I am going by for my music selection. Thanks!!
Anna,
This person gives a good summary of what you can use.
