iTunes and Spotify Information
The preceding pages contain iTunes and Spotify links to the 2023-2024 UIL Music Memory
selections. These recordings were used to prepare the Music Memory Passport and the
Official Clip Tape for the Music Memory Competition.

Teachers may purchase and download the selections from iTunes to create practice CDs for
their students. The recordings are NOT part of this publication.

iTunes Plus Products do not contain security technology that limits your usage of such
products. Usage Rules (ii) – (v) on the iTunes Usage Rule Agreement do not apply. You may
copy, store, and burn iTunes Plus Products as reasonably necessary for personal, non-
commercial use.

Furthermore, UIL has created a playlist available on Spotify where users can listen to the
selections for free: rb.gy/1est6 The QR code below links to the 2023-2024 UIL Music Memory
playlist.

You will need to set up a Spotify account in order to access the music. Spotify currently offers
a free subscription model that includes advertising, or paid subscription options that are ad-
free and have additional features. There are also Spotify apps available for multiple platforms
and devices.

A Note on Streaming Services

Streaming services are subscription-based, meaning you have access to their whole catalog
as long as you are a subscriber but lose access if your subscription expires. It is not possible to
burn CDs with music accessed through the free streaming services. In order for students to
be able to listen to music at home through a streaming service, they will need to have access
to their own account. Keep in mind that there are minimum age requirements for setting up
accounts with services such as Spotify, so parental assistance would be necessary. A sample
note for parents is included in the Correspondence folder.
