# ElevenLabs releases Music v2.5

The updated model is trained on licensed data and supports long-form compositions, mid-track genre transitions, inpainting, and lossless downloads.

- Free tiers include five daily downloads requiring attribution, while Pro plans receive 400 monthly downloads.
- Users permanently retain commercial ownership of generated tracks even after cancelling or downgrading subscriptions.
- Downloads are blocked for any tracks generated using references to other artists' songs.
- The model is default across ElevenMusic, ElevenCreative, and the API, while Music v2 remains accessible.
- Capabilities include multilingual vocals, lyrics, rap, and sound loop or reference audio inputs.

## Why it matters

Creators and developers gain a commercially cleared music generation model with permanent ownership rights across free and paid tiers.
