TL;DR
TL;DR: even with SIAE/GEMA/SACEM/SGAE/PRS/ASCAP in play, the model that truly protects you is a buyout. Below: the country framework and what ownership changes.
The details that matter
- •PROs (SIAE, GEMA, SACEM, SGAE, PRS, ASCAP, BMI, РАО) manage public performance rights.
- •A buyout covers master and composition use — and often removes the PRO obligation when the track isn’t registered with them.
- •Each country has its own exemptions, thresholds and rules.
- •Sonify Music keeps its catalog off PROs — zero ambiguity.
- •The PDF certificate is accepted everywhere as proof of ownership.
