Hello there!
Nice to meet you, my name is Arthur and I want to start an online business.
On Etsy, I've seen lots of people selling custom art, canvas, and posters that people can customize with their favorite song.
I would like to start my brand selling stuff like that: people will receive a customer poster with the song soundwave, lyrics, artist name, with the track they like the most.
How can I deal with song copyrights and trademarks?
From what I've read online, that's my idea: I would advertise my product using popular songs that people can recognize, but I would put on my website Legal Page a notice like that "The artist names and song lyrics used on the website are used for illustration purposes only.
All copyrights go to their respective owners."
I can't control what people request, it can be a song made before 1923, a modern one, etc... What can I do?
Thank you so much.
