The problem
Your venue may not be compliant on music
Radio and Spotify in a commercial space is unlicensed public performance. Even if you've never been told, an inspection can end in a notice and a fine.
Fines from PRS & PPL
Public performance without a licence is grounds for inspection and a notice. Fines are issued per occurrence.
Music off-brand
Random radio misses the mood of the room. Music is part of the guest journey, not noise to put up with.
Streaming gives no cover
Mainstream streaming isn't licensed for business. You pay for the subscription but the legal problem stays.

Legality
Why the music is free to play — country by country
Ambera's music is generated entirely by AI. In most countries a work with no human author isn't protected by copyright, so it never enters a collecting society's repertoire and there's no public-performance royalty to pay for playing it. Here is the specific legal basis where we operate.
🇬🇧
United Kingdom
Societies: PRS for Music · PPL
Copyright protects only a work that is its author's own intellectual creation, and PRS/PPL register works with a human author — fully autonomous AI tracks fall outside their repertoire and royalty distribution.
Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988, ss. 9 & 178 — legislation.gov.uk
🇩🇪
Germany
Society: GEMA
German law protects only a "persönliche geistige Schöpfung" — a personal intellectual creation by a human. Music generated by AI without human creativity is not a protected work, so it isn't in GEMA's repertoire.
Urheberrechtsgesetz (UrhG) § 2(2) — gesetze-im-internet.de
🇫🇷
France
Society: SACEM
Only a human can be the author of an "œuvre de l'esprit," and the work must bear the imprint of the author's personality. Purely AI-generated output is not protected and isn't part of SACEM's repertoire.
Code de la propriété intellectuelle, arts. L111-1 & L112-1 — legifrance.gouv.fr
🇪🇸
Spain
Society: SGAE
The author is "the natural person who creates" the work. Works produced solely by AI, with no significant human input, fall outside copyright and SGAE's repertoire.
TRLPI (Real Decreto Legislativo 1/1996), art. 5 — boe.es
🇮🇹
Italy
Society: SIAE
Copyright protects human intellectual creations of creative character; AI counts only as an instrumental tool. Music generated by AI, not by a person, is not a protected work.
Legge 633/1941, art. 1 (as amended by Law 132/2025) — normattiva.it
🇵🇹
Portugal
Society: SPA
Copyright belongs to the intellectual creator of the work — a human. AI systems aren't recognised as authors, so autonomously generated music is not protected.
Código do Direito de Autor (DL 63/85), art. 11 — diariodarepublica.pt
🇳🇱
Netherlands
Society: Buma/Stemra
A protected work must be the maker's "own intellectual creation" bearing a "personal stamp" (Hoge Raad). Output made by AI, without human creative choices, is not protected.
Auteurswet — wetten.overheid.nl
🇵🇱
Poland
Society: ZAiKS
A "work" is a manifestation of creative activity of an individual character — by a person. Content generated by AI without human creative input is not a work and is not protected.
Ustawa o prawie autorskim (1994), art. 1 — isap.sejm.gov.pl
🇦🇪
United Arab Emirates
Arabic-language market
Copyright law reserves authorship to a person; works created solely by AI, without meaningful human involvement, may not qualify for protection.
Federal Decree-Law No. 38 of 2021 on Copyright & Neighbouring Rights — uaelegislation.gov.ae
🇮🇱
Israel
Society: ACUM
Protection requires originality grounded in human creativity (Supreme Court, Interlego). The Ministry of Justice's 2022 AI opinion covered only training data, not AI output — which, lacking a human author, is not protected.
Copyright Act, 2007, s. 4 — WIPO Lex
Honest caveat
Ambera provides a background-music service and is not a law firm; this is general information, not legal advice.
AI and copyright law is evolving, and the details depend on your jurisdiction, venue type and how the music is used — the UK, for example, keeps a narrow provision (CDPA 1988 s.9(3)) for computer-generated works. For specific questions, consult a qualified lawyer in your country.
FAQ
Questions people ask before subscribing
Do I still have to pay collecting societies (PRS, PPL, GEMA…) if I use Ambera?
No. Ambera's music is generated entirely by AI. In most countries a work with no human author isn't protected by copyright — the US courts (Thaler v. Perlmutter, 2025) and the EU's "author's own intellectual creation" standard both require a human author — so the music isn't part of any collecting society's repertoire and no PRS, PPL, GEMA or SACEM royalties are due for playing it. The legality section lists the exact statute per country.
Is this legal?
Yes. Because the music has no human author it falls outside copyright in the jurisdictions we serve, so there's no public-performance licence to buy for it. We keep an honest caveat: the rules vary by country and venue and we're not a law firm — see the country-by-country basis in the legality section.
What's included in the free plan?
The Base plan: 30+ channels, 128 kbps quality, one local stream. That's enough for most cafés.
How hard is it to get started?
Setup takes minutes: pick your venue and a music profile, configure playback, and the music starts. No musical experience needed.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, no prepayment and no lock-in. You can switch your subscription off with one click.
