Best AI music generator: the two we ran, and what the rest are for
We gave Suno and Udio the same brief on the same day. Suno wins on output. On the licence the field splits three ways, and one tool grants nothing at any price.
Can you sell music made with Suno? What the terms actually say
Suno grants commercial rights on paid downloads, then says it cannot promise you a copyright. Three gates decide whether you can sell a track.
Udio vs Suno: one brief, one day, two free accounts
Udio vs Suno, or Suno vs Udio: same sentence, same day, both free tiers. Suno gave us more music, Udio gave us more control, and only one let us keep a file.
How to use Suno: the free account, honestly
How to use Suno step by step, from your first prompt to getting a file out — including the two results you can't play and the seven downloads you get.
Suno alternatives: the one I actually tested, and eight I didn't
Every Suno alternatives list claims it tested everything. This one tested one rival properly, labels the rest, and fixes two entries the others get wrong.
Suno pricing: the number that isn't credits
Suno sells credits, but caps something else: downloads. Seven for the lifetime of a free account, 20 a month on Pro, 60 on Premier. What each plan really costs.
Suno review: the free tier is good, and it's shrinking
One prompt on Suno's free plan returned four tracks. Two were playable, two were paywalled previews. What that tells you about paying, tested 3 September 2026.
Udio review: more knobs than Suno, far less rope
Udio, the AI music generator, gives song length and clip timing free, paywalls BPM and its negative prompt, and caps free at 10 credits a day. Tested Sep 2026.
