can i be sued for doing so
To better understand your situation, could you clarify if you have already obtained exclusive rights to the copyrighted music? This will help me provide more accurate guidance regarding potential legal implications.
yes i have and its fully paid for
Thank you for the clarification. Since you have exclusive rights to the copyrighted music and have fully paid for it, you have the legal right to use it. Removing it should not expose you to legal action, but you might want to review your contract:
- **Review Contract**: Ensure the contract doesn't have any clauses restricting removal.
- **Consult an Attorney**: If unsure, consult a legal expert for personalized advice.
