Suno has opened a waitlist for Suno Vinyl, a service that presses songs made on its AI platform onto physical 12-inch vinyl records. Each record is pressed and shipped to the user's door, with pricing estimated at $45 plus shipping.
Users build a tracklist from their Suno library, with up to 46 minutes of audio per record, then design a sleeve and labels using their own art or Suno-generated artwork. Each disc is a 12-inch black record made from what Suno calls an eco-friendly PETG material, pressed from the user's final mix and marketed as a genuine pressed record rather than a novelty cut.
The move follows Suno's $400 million Series D raise in June, which valued the company at $5.4 billion, and comes as Suno fights copyright battles on multiple fronts over how its models were trained. Universal Music Group and Sony Music remain plaintiffs against Suno, while Warner Music Group settled its case in November 2025 and struck a licensing deal that included Suno's acquisition of the concert-discovery platform Songkick. Musixmatch has separately signed Suno as the first customer of its own copyright tool: Musixmatch signs up AI company Suno for its Sentinel copyright tool.
The launch also follows Suno's loss last week in a German copyright case brought by collecting society GEMA over training on its repertoire without a licence, and continuing legal action in Denmark from Koda. The vinyl service gives Suno's users a physical product while the legality of its model training is still being tested in court.
Suno's own pitch leans hard on sentiment: "Some songs deserve more than a stream," the Suno Vinyl page reads. "Press a personal keepsake. Press a gift for a loved one. Or press a banger, because it's too good to live on a screen." The company describes each disc as "a genuine pressed record, not a novelty cut," aimed at gifting occasions like "the anniversary song, the birthday track, the inside joke that became an anthem."
