Comparison

Horra vs Mood Media

Horra soundtracks venues, from independents to franchises, with a product you control yourself and published pricing. Mood Media is an established player in commercial background music, present in several countries.

The real question, for an independent venue or a chain, isn't the size of a global network, it's access: seeing a price, signing up online, and starting this week, without a sales call or a multi-year contract. That's Horra's territory.

Let us be fair

Mood Media has an established presence and a long track record, but for a venue that wants to see a price, sign up online, and manage its own music, Horra remains the more direct, clear choice.

Frequently asked questions

Does Mood Media publish its pricing?

No. Mood Media's offer is quote-only, through a sales representative: there's no public pricing, and you can't sign up online without a prior conversation. At Horra, per-venue pricing is published, with clear monthly and annual rates, and you get started on your own.

Is there a minimum commitment with Mood Media?

Mood Media typically works through a negotiated contract with a sales representative, geared toward large accounts, rather than a simple monthly subscription. Horra runs monthly or annually, with no long-term commitment, a pace that fits a venue that wants to stay flexible.

Does Horra also handle audiovisual installation and digital signage?

Horra is a product focused on music and audio messages, managed from a modern app, with human curation and guided compliance built in. It plugs simply into your existing audio system: you keep a tool focused on your sound, that you control yourself.
