If you own the full rights of your music, either as an artist or as a record label, Sonific Music Network seems to work as interesting solution to promote it the music in a viral sort of way. Registered members can use Sonific's SongSpot™ widget on blogs and social networking pages such as MySpace and Facebook, endorsing your music and spreading the word. The Sonific staff claims that their service works as "free Google AdWords for your music": while users have a cooler website they can also listen freely to music. The widget also connects the songs to services like iTunes where page visitors can purchase and download the music.
The premise is that artists and independent labels will generate revenue by reaching at no cost a wide audience, which according to Sonific accounts already mount to tens of thousands of users who might be interested in buying the music or visit concerts. Sonific plans cash in on comission fees to downloads and advertising that will come along with the widgets.
