Questions

Can I try it first?
Yes. The free package needs no key and no sign-up.
What do I have to show?
A visible link back to the Sounds & Stage page for what you display, unless your licence says otherwise.
Can I resell the data?
No. You can build products on it, but not resell the dataset itself. Ask us about a data licence.
What happens if I go over my limit?
Requests get a 429 reply with a Retry-After header until the minute is up. Nothing is charged extra.
