In general terms this means that the copyright of the beat remains the property of the creator (Licensor) and is not transferred to you the buyer (Licensee). It also means that the creator can sell it (license it) to an unlimited amount of buyers. Though the terms of a non-exclusive license vary it typically gives you the licensee the right to synchronize your vocals with (record your vocals onto) the music track to make a demo song or in many cases to make a song that can be sold individually or on your album or used for commercial purposes. In this case the buyer (licensee) is not responsible for paying the music producer/creator (licensor) royalties. The nature of non-exclusive licenses vary from site to site and from producer to producer so be sure to verify that you can use the beat for your intended purpose before licensing it.
Exclusive Licensing: You can also buy (license) and download exclusive beats online. Typically these beats are much more expensive than non-exclusive beats and can range anywhere from $300 to $5,000 or more online.
Though exclusive licenses vary from site to site and producer to producer the creator (Licensor) transfers copyright ownership of the beat to the buyer (Licensee) upon purchase. The beat (complete musical composition) becomes the property of the buyer, thus the concept of exclusivity.
