@billboard This is a really interesting development. It might take a completely NEW AI music company to overcome the licensing hurdle. Unless Suno wins in court of course, or Sony and UMG settle in the end.
Universal Music Group and Sony have a new lawsuit against Suno following Suno's release of V6 last week.
They argue V6 is not a "fresh start" but "fruit of the same poisoned tree".
Looks like there is a long way before licensing is resolved.
First AI music awards slated for 13 November in LA. What a time we are living in!
They'll be hosted by SIQA and there will be 'live performances', which will be a hybrid of humans and AI!
@loopspack@suno@sunomusic The download changes came in on 3 September. You say you signed up on 8 September?
Even if you signed up before 3 September, when you signed up, you agreed to this: “We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify portions of these Terms of Service at any time.”
@pigeon__s On the contrary, they can pretty much licence it all. Just need to make deals with Universal and Sony and that will be a LOT of music to train with.
@loopspack@suno@sunomusic Doubt you'll get a refund.
The download limit is clearly stated in their terms and conditions, which you'd have agreed to when signing up.
Never sign up without reading terms and conditions. With ai chatbots, theres no excuse as they can summarise the text in seconds.
@Kazi5isAlive@suno It was always going to have to end up in licensing deals with major labels. Just like streaming before it. There is future in using AI in music, just not commercial fully generated AI songs.
The first major licensing deal for Suno. It was really just a matter of time. Ironically, as with Spotify, I imagine in the future, artists may need to pay to be included. We are living through a monumental musical shift.
@RollingStone I think a lot of people are already using AI in music. I think it's only a matter of time before it's fully legitimised despite the clear objections that a lot of people have

@OrangeAndInsane Fair about job loss etc. But at some level every process that uses computers hands over some decision-making to algorithms. The key is "some" not all. Talented musicians (e.g. Charlie Puth, Jacob Collier, Dr Dre) are using genAI and not producing "shallow end products"
