# music.jamesbpollack.com

This host is a music licensing discovery service operated by James B. Pollack. It serves agents or applications that need to find commercially licensable music tracks based on audio characteristics. Its distinguishing feature is the combination of attribute-based search (mood, BPM, key, year, similar-to) with per-track x402 purchase URLs, enabling programmatic licensing workflows without manual browsing.

## When to use this host

Use this host when an agent needs to find music tracks matching specific audio characteristics (mood, BPM range, key, year, or similarity to a reference track) and requires direct licensing purchase links for each result. Do not use this host if you need to stream or download audio content — it returns metadata and URLs only, not audio files. If the task requires audio playback, waveform analysis, or full audio delivery, a different host with audio streaming or file-serving capabilities is needed. This host is also not suitable for general music metadata lookup (e.g., artist discography, album info) beyond what its search filters expose.
