What about royalty-free music?

I am a hobbiest photographer and videographer. And I enjoy putting any vacation trips that I’ve taken into one “be all” video which sums everything up. Video editing, basically. (Adobe Premiere FTW).

Needless to say, I add music to the background. For my own personal use videos, ie, only ones I myself keep hold of, I have always used regular old music out there. Anything I could find that I had in my CD library. But that practice got kind of sketchy when I wanted to give copies to some friends since, they too, were on said trip. So I got stuck with royalty fees.

Now, the royalty fees really aren’t that bad. But I sitll don’t want to have to pay them.

So this begs the question of you readers. Do you know of any free (as in beer) royalty-free music out there that I could download, preferably instrumental stuff? Anything under the Creative Commons licenses? I’ve found resources in the past, but I couldn’t find any really “good” stuff, if you know what I mean.

    I use music from PodSafe
    I use music from PodSafe Audio for our PreviewCast podcast. They have some good stuff, and it’s all royalty free.
