Answer a few questions, get a price.
How many separate productions is this for? this counts distinct pieces of content, not cutdowns. Every video is its own needle drop and needs its own clearance, so it's priced as its own production. A cutdown or alternate edit of an existing piece doesn't count as a new production
How many tracks does this need? one license can cover multiple tracks, each priced individually
How many cutdowns? a shorter or alternate edit of the same track, e.g. a 60, a 30, and a 15 of one film is 3 cutdowns
What is the use? pick all that apply, they blend into one price. The price levels off after 3 (TV is the one exception, it always adds more)

Synch rights where the pairing of music with picture happens, not where the content is distributed
