1. Hi, we’re sound major and welcome! We’re happy to have you here and we hope you enjoy your stay. When we say ‘we’, ‘us’ or ‘sound major ’ it’s because that’s who we are and we own and run the sound major Market sites.
2. sound major ’s ecosystem of digital marketplaces helps millions of people around the world get creative and earn online.

You will have an sound major Market account that will allow you to buy and sell items like the ones found on the sound major Market sites and make other related transactions.
3. The sound major Market sites are platforms that allow members to buy and sell licenses to use digital items like website themes, production music, motion graphics project files, software code, vectors, images and much, much more. On sound major Market, buyers and authors (sellers) transact with each other directly and we provide the platform to allow the transactions to happen.
