I was curious recently - we started advertising on TikTok. I've never used TikTok before and was surprised that they have copyrighted music on their platform.
I'm assuming they probably have some special agreement with media companies - but it got me thinking; is it possible to (legally) play short snippets of famous copyrighted music on websites?
Is there any way that smaller websites can play short snippets (10-20 seconds) of copyrighted famous songs on their website?

Playing full songs without a license can get your content (or even your domain or hosting) yanked over a DMCA violation report. Large infractions can result in lawsuits from media rights holders.

I just want to play short snippets of famous songs on the site. 10-20 seconds typically.

I'll have a look
