Elon Musk: Twitter sued by music publishers for $250m
By Annabelle LiangBusiness reporter
A group of 17 music publishers in the US has sued Twitter, claiming The Platform enabled copyright violations involving nearly 1,700 songs.
The National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) is seeking More Than $250m (£197. 7m) in damages.
In a lawsuit filed at the Federal District Court in Nashville, the NMPA claimed Twitter " permits and encourages infringement" for profit.
It says The Situation has not improved since Elon Musk bought The Company .
The NMPA, which represents firms - including Sony Music Publishing, BMG Rights Management and Universal Music Publishing Group - Alleged that Twitter continues to " reap huge profits from the availability of unlicensed music without paying the necessary licensing fees for it".
It added that the infringements have given Twitter an " unfair advantage" over competitors - including TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Snapchat - which pay for music licenses.
Twitter " stands alone as the largest Social Media platform that has completely refused to license the millions of songs on its service, " NMPA President David Israelite said in a statement.
Twitter did not directly respond to a BBC request for comment.
Mr Musk, who recently reclaimed the title of The World 's richest person, bought Twitter Last Year for $44bn.
The NMPA also said: " Twitter's change in ownership in October 2022 has not led to improvements in how it acts with respect to copyright. "
" On the contrary, Twitter's Internal Affairs regarding matters pertinent to this case are in disarray, " it added.
NMPA cited Twitter's downsizing of " critical departments involved with content review and policing terms of service violations" and.
The NMPA also Alleged that Twitter " routinely ignores known repeat infringers and known infringements".
Earlier this month, Linda Yaccarino, the former head of advertising at media giant NBCUniversal,
Ms Yaccarino oversees business operations at The Platform , which has been struggling to make money.
Since buying Twitter, Mr Musk has cut 75% of its workforce, including teams charged with tracking abuse, and changed how The Company verifies accounts.
