DistroKid pulls indie artists' music from streaming after UMG copyright suit

What happened

After UMG filed a direct copyright suit against music distributor DistroKid (alleging unauthorized uses and deceptive distribution practices), DistroKid removed independent artists' music from Spotify and Apple Music - including accounts UMG flagged, such as 'Lofi Chill' and 'Chill Flow Radio'. Analysis of the disputed recordings linked much of the material to Suno-generated music.

The fallout

Affected artists, such as Sahunta, reported frozen royalties and copyright strikes before any court had determined infringement.

Status

Takedown and platform fallout, not a ruling. UMG's claims against DistroKid are unproven allegations, and the artist-impact accounts are as reported by the artists. This is distinct from the separate SDNY compel motion in the Suno case.
