==The Internet Archive==
 
We can search the entire IA for items licensed by CC-BY or CC-BY-SA (excluding any NC or ND items) using the following query
 
<pre>
licenseurl:http*by* OR licenseurl:http*by-sa* AND NOT licenseurl:http*by-nc*
 
</pre>
 
For example, https://archive.org/search.php?query=licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby%2A+OR+licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-sa%2A+AND+NOT+licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-nc%2A
 
We can further refine the query by limiting to audio-only items by adding <code>AND mediatype:(audio)</code> to the query:
 
<pre>
licenseurl:http*by* OR licenseurl:http*by-sa* AND NOT licenseurl:http*by-nc* AND mediatype:(audio)
</pre>
 
For example, https://archive.org/search.php?query=licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby%2A%20OR%20licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-sa%2A%20AND%20NOT%20licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-nc%2A%20AND%20mediatype%3A%28audio%29
 
For better results, we can limit it to the collection produced by [http://www.freemusicarchive.org/ the free music archive] by adding <code>AND collection:freemusicarchive</code>:
 
<pre>
licenseurl:http*by* OR licenseurl:http*by-sa* AND NOT licenseurl:http*by-nc* AND mediatype:(audio) AND collection:freemusicarchive
</pre>
 
For example, https://archive.org/search.php?query=licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby%2A%20OR%20licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-sa%2A%20AND%20NOT%20licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-nc%2A%20AND%20mediatype%3A%28audio%29%20AND%20collection%3Afreemusicarchive

Attribution Reminder

Remember, be sure to attribute any libre soundtracks you use to the original author either in credits within the video or the text released with the video (ie: youtube description field).

Commercial Use

Here we link to a few cherry-picked songs/albums that are libre for commercial use.

Non-Commercial Use

And here's a few cherry-picked songs/albums that are libre but non-commercial.

The Internet Archive

We can search the entire IA for items licensed by CC-BY or CC-BY-SA (excluding any NC or ND items) using the following query 

licenseurl:http*by* OR licenseurl:http*by-sa* AND NOT licenseurl:http*by-nc*

For example, https://archive.org/search.php?query=licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby%2A+OR+licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-sa%2A+AND+NOT+licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-nc%2A

We can further refine the query by limiting to audio-only items by adding AND mediatype:(audio) to the query: 

licenseurl:http*by* OR licenseurl:http*by-sa* AND NOT licenseurl:http*by-nc* AND mediatype:(audio)

For example, https://archive.org/search.php?query=licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby%2A%20OR%20licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-sa%2A%20AND%20NOT%20licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-nc%2A%20AND%20mediatype%3A%28audio%29

For better results, we can limit it to the collection produced by the free music archive by adding AND collection:freemusicarchive: 

licenseurl:http*by* OR licenseurl:http*by-sa* AND NOT licenseurl:http*by-nc* AND mediatype:(audio) AND collection:freemusicarchive

For example, https://archive.org/search.php?query=licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby%2A%20OR%20licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-sa%2A%20AND%20NOT%20licenseurl%3Ahttp%2Aby-nc%2A%20AND%20mediatype%3A%28audio%29%20AND%20collection%3Afreemusicarchive

CCMixter

  • Ccmixter.org hosts music freely shared by artists. The uploaded soundtracks are licensed under Creative Commons licenses, and most are Non Commercial.

You can search for non-NC tracks on ccmixer using the following URL: 

* http://beta.ccmixter.org/stems?lic=open

Newgrounds

Newgrounds is a website where users publish their media content, including music. Not all uploads are FLOSS, but every song has a page that shows the license in the bottom-left. Many are CC-BY.

I don't know how to search for songs with a filter showing only non-NC FLOSS-licenseed tracks, but you can view all audio tracks sorted by "score" here: 

* https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/featured?type=1&interval=all&sort=score&genre=0

YouTube

Youtube uploaders can license their work under Creative Commons licenses, but I don't know how to search by them.

Here's a list of YouTube channels that upload FLOSS non-NC licensed soundtracks

  1. Regular Cannibals

Others

  • Jamendo - [1] - royalty-free access
