Will I own the beat once I purchase it?
No, If you purchase non-exclusive licenses (Non-Profit, Standard wav, Premium Track-Out and Unlimited) you only get a license with certain permission and rights based on the descriptions of the specific license acquired.. This grants you legal permission to use the beat but doesn't mean you own it. a full exclusive license is required to own the beat
The Producer still obtained full ownership and copyright of the Beat. That means it has the full right to keep it to the website until someone purchases the Exclusive Rights.
NOTE: You own 100% of your vocal composition or any additional composition/instrumentation etc. and the producer owns 100% of the beat, this on the pie chart becomes 50% for you and 50% for the producer.

Will the beat be removed from the website once I license it?
No, the Beat will not be removed if you purchase non-exclusive licenses (Non-Profit, Standard wav, Premium Track-Out and Unlimited) as the Producer still retains all ownership and can sell/license to multiple peoples, until someone purchases the Exclusive Rights. That being, access to the license gives you the rights to use it per the license terms along with others who have a license without copyright issues.
Can other people use/purchase the Beat I’ve just bought?
Yes. One of the advantages of buying + selling beats online is the low cost. Rather than only sell beats exclusively for huge sums of money, producers license beats at lower prices, meaning customers get great prices, and producers can still earn a living. The goal of leasing beats is to spend less and build a stronger fan base.
This means that if you’re licensing a beat, there’s every chance that others will lease that also. This is very common in the music industry, right up to top artists, and is nothing to worry about. To ensure that no one leases the same beat as you, you can buy the exclusive.
What happens when I buy the full exclusive ownership License?
when you purchase the full ownership license, the beat is automatically removed so it cannot be sold anymore. One thing to keep in mind is that anyone who has leased the beat before you buy the exclusive can still use it within the terms of their license.
