Hello everyone!

I'm not sure if this idea's been tried before but in regards to obtaining "Royalty-free" tracks (from websites like Audiojungle for example), is it possible to get a group of people together who all want to listen to a song for personal use, and pitch in to buy it through a donation pool or something? Would anyone like to do this?

I was listening to the following-

Music - Calm Cinematic Orchestral Underscore | AudioJungle (http://audiojungle.net/item/calm-cinematic-orchestral-underscore/3082945)
you can hear 2/3rds of it without the watermark here - Halo 5: Animated Backgrounds + Download - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBr4f_raIvU)

And thought it'd be perfect listening on my own time. The thing is, you can only buy a "licence" for the track to use in profit-making projects (professional trailers, commercials, etc).

Idk if theres any way to get these songs without the watermark other than paying for them, but for purely personal use paying $17 to $85 and on some sites a staggering $1000 is plain mental. So the group idea is if the track is $17, myself or someone else would start a donation pool on Paypal or wherever and we would each pitch in a certain amount. So if we have 17 people who like and want the song, everyone would pitch in $1, whoever buys the song through the donation pool would then set up a download link here.

What do you guys/gals think? :)
