Suno is seeking testimony from Apple Music about major-label licensing and streaming-market effects in litigation brought by Universal and Sony. In an October 27 filing, Suno opposed Apple’s attempt to quash a deposition subpoena.
Background and verified details
The legal fight includes questions about Apple Music’s commercial dependence on major-label catalogs, possible licensing discussions and fraud controls. Apple has argued that the requests are too broad and not sufficiently relevant.
Implications
The request is disputed and the court has not ruled that Suno’s fair-use defense is valid. Music companies should distinguish discovery arguments from findings of infringement or market harm.
