Music Companies Sue Twitter for Copyright Violations

Elsewhere, a group of music publishers representing major artists like Beyonce and Taylor Swift are suing Twitter for what they say is copyright infringement to the tune of $250 million in damages. They say that they've identified hundreds of thousands of infringements from 1700 songs. Now, the suit brought on by the National Music Publishers Association, on behalf of 17 music publishers argue that Twitter benefits from the use of artists songs that the platform hasn't paid for.
