Any good sites for background audio files, etc?

I was wondering if there are any good sites for free collections or fairly inexpensive public domain audio files for use as background music for my videostudeo slideshows and videos? I like the ones included in videostudio pro x2, but would like a bigger selection?

Also, is there any way to add to the choice of ready made slideshow or video setup choices that the video wizard uses in videostudio pro x2?

Thanks....that was very helpful. Anyone know of similar music sites perhaps for US (many of those sites were for UK).

Is it acceptable/legal to use classical music ripped from cd's you own for use as background music of slideshows and short home video clips (for h personal home use only, not comercial use)

Digital Juice is having a sale on their StackTraxx libraries. With StackTraxx each instrument is in its own track and you can remove those you don't want. Very customizable and professional. Royalty free too.

You can also check our Free Stuff guide.

And to answer your question, I don't know about other countries but the copyright laws in the U.S. are down-right impossible to interpret without (or maybe even with) a law degree. But if it is only for home use I think you are safe.

Just for completeness we also have some links to stuff you can purchase at your own risk.
