    I'm planning on releasing my film online, but I'm worried about copyright infridgement. Is it illegal to freely distribute a film with copyrighted music on the internet without the authorization of the copyright holders?

    If this depends on the music, I have the following music on my film:

    Metallica, Moby, music from Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch, and Pulp Fiction.

    Thanks!

    The LEGAL way to use music in your film like the movie industry does when they don't wanna pay, is to use 10% or less of the song.

    But since this is a fanfilm, I don't think there should be any problem, since it's on a non-lucrative project.
