Universal Music Group N.V.Suno's new copyright measures may strengthen its legal position against UMG's lawsuit

AI music generation service Suno announced new tools including audio watermarking and fingerprinting to prevent misuse of its tracks on other streaming platforms. The company also signed an agreement with lyrics provider Musixmatch to use its Sentinal system for copyright detection, and updated its community guidelines to explicitly prohibit deceptive audio and unauthorized use of a person's voice or likeness. Suno plans to introduce a new download policy to bar mass distribution on streaming platforms, though details were not provided. The changes come as Suno faces lawsuits from major labels including Universal Music Group and Sony Music Group, a recent German court ruling that it broke copyright rules, and a class action lawsuit in Massachusetts over a data breach that affected 55 million users.
