In today’s world, customers are more conscious than ever about the values behind the brands they support. From sustainability to fair trade, businesses are expected to align with ethical practices that resonate with their audience. But one area that’s often overlooked? Music.

Behind every song played in a café, bar, salon, or shop, there’s an artist who deserves fair pay. Unfortunately, traditional music licensing systems and streaming platforms fail to reward artists properly — especially independent musicians.

At Audiimax, we believe businesses can do better. We’ve created a music platform that’s not only fully legal for commercial use, but also ethical, transparent, and designed to support real talent. This is the Audiimax revolution.

The Problem with Traditional Music Licensing

PRS and PPL, the two main music licensing bodies in the UK, collect money from businesses for public performance rights. However, they often lack the ability to track exactly which songs are being played in each venue.

This means the money collected doesn’t fairly reach the artists being listened to — particularly independent musicians. In fact, most artists receive little to nothing, even when their music is played regularly in businesses.

Streaming platforms like Spotify don’t fix this issue either. Aside from being illegal for commercial use, Spotify pays artists fractions of a penny per stream, with the majority of revenue going to major labels.
