Why Suno is the top pick
Its songs sound finished, vocals included, which most music generators still struggle with.
- The only music generator whose songs sound finished, vocals included, from a one-line description.
- Free songs can be played and shared but not downloaded. Pro at $8 a month adds downloads and commercial rights.
- Downloads are capped per month (20 on Pro, 60 on Premier), so it suits occasional use more than building a music library.
- Universal and Sony are still suing over its training data. Fine for social and internal video, think twice for a national campaign.
