BMG and AI music platform Suno have finalized a licensing agreement that allows BMG's music catalog to be used for training and generating derivative works on Suno's platform. This deal includes compensation for artists and songwriters who opt-in to have their music used, and it also resolves Suno's prior use of BMG's content. The agreement comes after Suno faced legal challenges and a ruling in Germany regarding unlicensed music training, and it aims to establish responsible AI development in music by prioritizing artist choice and compensation.
