What format are the beats in?
The non-exclusive and exclusive preview beats will be encoded at at least 128kbps, 44.1kHz, MP3 format. The non-exclusive beats that are available to download once they've been purchased, are encoded at at least 192kbps, 44.1kHz, MP3 format. When an Exclusive beat is sold, there is no direct download available, instead the buyer and seller must then contact each other through our messages system to discuss how the beat is to be delivered. This ensures that the buyer gets the best quality possible.

What is the difference between Exclusive and Non-Exclusive?
Exclusive means that when a buyer buys an exclusive beat, it now belongs to them, plain and simple. They can do whatever they want with it, and it's no longer seller's beat. The seller is basically selling away their beat. But that's why they charge more for an Exclusive beat! Non-Exclusive means that when a buyer buys a non-exclusive beat, they can use it for making their own song or performing live, for example, but the seller still own the rights to the beat. The seller can also sell that same beat to as many buyers as they wish. Basically, they could sell the same beat to 100 different people but they still own it.
