All company-supplied content on newscast is available free of charge to the media, and is clearly marked as such. In the case of syndicated content, a fee will be payable on download even if not used although additional fees - as displayed in the online rate card - may be payable depending on actual usage. A warning message will always appear prior to download of payable content allowing the transaction to be aborted if necessary.
There are no subscription fees or charges for media use of newscast, and billing information is only required if you expect to make use of syndicated (rather than company-supplied) content.
