What happened
On Sept. 18, 2026, UMG Recordings, Capitol Records, Sony Music Entertainment and nine Sony affiliates filed a new copyright complaint against Suno in the District of Massachusetts (No. 1:26-cv-14275, Judge F. Dennis Saylor IV), asserting 60,202 sound recordings listed in an exhibit.
Why a second case
The labels say the recordings were identified in discovery in their original June 2024 case after they obtained access to Suno's training data; the first complaint named only an illustrative 560 recordings because Suno would not disclose what it trained on. The new filing follows Judge Saylor's Aug. 18, 2026 order denying leave to add 61,026 works to the original case and suggesting a separate, related suit. The new case was assigned to Judge Saylor.
What the complaint alleges
The labels allege Suno copied the recordings to train its models and obtained many of them by stream-ripping YouTube with tools that bypass the site's rolling-cipher protection. The complaint pleads direct infringement of post-1972 recordings, direct infringement of pre-1972 recordings, and circumvention under 17 U.S.C. 1201(a). It quotes Suno's 2024 answer that its model was built by showing it tens of millions of recordings that presumably included the labels', and cites a Deezer report that AI tracks exceeded half of daily new uploads in July 2026.
These are allegations in a complaint; nothing has been decided.
