Sonify Music, a background music platform for businesses, has announced the global launch of its 'Buy-Out' model, making it the first platform worldwide to offer full, permanent ownership of music tracks instead of traditional licensing. The announcement was made on June 27, 2026, from Milan, Italy.
The move addresses a long-standing limitation in the royalty-free music market, where users typically pay for access through restrictive licenses or subscriptions but never actually own the music. This leaves businesses vulnerable to changing terms, expiration risks, or platform shutdowns. Sonify's Buy-Out model allows buyers to acquire outright copyright, so once a track is purchased, it belongs entirely to the buyer with no ongoing obligations.
'In an era where music creation has become technically accessible to everyone, it no longer makes sense for a single track to generate passive, indefinite revenue off the creators and businesses who use it,' said Venanzio Giacomelli, Founder & CEO of Sonify Music. 'With our Buy-Out option, anyone who acquires a track becomes its outright owner once and for all—not a lifetime subscriber to a library.'
Sonify Music is headquartered in Tallinn, Estonia, and was founded by Giacomelli, an Italian entrepreneur, pianist, and composer with over 20 years of experience in international music production, DJing, and technology. The platform provides premium, curated playlists tailored for commercial venues such as medical practices, spas, hotels, retail stores, and restaurants. All streams are backed by audit-proof licensing to ensure 100% legal compliance, and the exclusive Buy-Out option is now available across the entire catalog.
The Buy-Out model could have significant implications for businesses that rely on background music. By owning tracks outright, businesses eliminate the risk of losing access to music due to platform changes or subscription lapses. This also allows for permanent use without recurring fees, potentially reducing long-term costs. For the music industry, the model challenges the traditional revenue stream of passive royalties, offering creators a new way to monetize their work through outright sales.
Sonify Music positions itself as a next-generation music platform bridging high-end soundscapes with corporate compliance. More information is available at sonifymusic.net.
