About SADAIC

SADAIC is Argentina's society of music authors and composers. It administers performance and mechanical rights for compositions used across the country.

Argentina is one of the largest music markets in Latin America, with deep listening culture across rock nacional, tango, urban Latin, electronic, and global pop. Strong public broadcasting, an active live scene, and rapidly growing streaming all generate substantial royalties processed through SADAIC.

For songwriters whose music earns in Argentina, SADAIC is the route through which broadcast, public performance, online streaming, and reproduction royalties are collected and distributed.
