Music rights
adbop provides display software and browser access. It does not grant rights to stream or publicly perform music.
Browser access is not a music licence
adbop lets you use music websites in the device's built-in browser or your chosen PC browser while displaying adverts. The service does not sell music, a business-music subscription or public-performance rights. Shortcuts to YouTube Music, Spotify and Apple Music are navigation conveniences, not permission or an endorsement by those services. Music uploads and uploaded playback have been removed; earlier files remain private and are not played.
Use a service authorised for your setting
Ordinary personal subscriptions generally do not authorise playing music to customers in a restaurant, bar, shop or other business. A streaming subscription and a public-performance licence are different permissions: obtaining one does not automatically supply the other. Each venue must check its provider's current terms, commercial-use permissions and the rights required for the actual use, and use an appropriately licensed business service where necessary. An Owner's personal/non-commercial adbop package does not permit commercial client advertising or change music rights.
South African performance rights
Depending on the music and use, licences may be required for the musical composition and the sound recording under South African copyright law. Contact SAMRO about rights it administers for composers/publishers and SAMPRA about rights it administers for recording artists/record companies. Confirm the relevant repertoire and tariff directly; adbop cannot determine every licence a venue needs. Other territories, including Zimbabwe, have their own collecting societies and requirements.
No extraction or circumvention
adbop does not download, extract or record streamed music or bypass provider account, region, DRM or playback restrictions. Keep the provider's normal branding, adverts and controls. All adbop functions require internet; it does not provide a licensed offline music library. Advert videos are silent and must be supplied without audio tracks. Permission to publish an advert does not give permission to add copyrighted music to it.
Rights concerns
If you believe content hosted on adbop infringes your rights, email support@adsbop.com with your contact details, the work/rights involved, the relevant content/account/device details and the basis for your authority. We investigate and may restrict access where justified. This is a support and rights-reporting route, not a claim that adbop has registered for a statutory safe-harbour scheme.
