Key holding or allegation
Complaint allegations only; no merits ruling.
Why it matters
Material expansion of the U.S. AI-music training dispute following discovery-driven identification of additional works.
Facts
After the court in the original UMG v Suno action declined to add tens of thousands of newly identified works to that case, record-label plaintiffs filed a separate action against Suno concerning 60,202 additional sound recordings.
Issues before the court
Whether Suno infringed the additional recordings through alleged copying for training and related model/output uses; how the parallel case will be coordinated with No. 1:24-cv-11611-FDS.
What the court did not decide
All infringement, fair-use, acquisition, output, damages and case-coordination issues remain unresolved.
