Show Notes

Between 2024 and 2026, the global music industry underwent its most dramatic structural shift since the rise of streaming. What began as lawsuits and defensive posturing transformed into a coordinated, industry‑wide embrace of AI music generation. Major labels—Universal Music Group (UMG), Sony Music Entertainment (SME), and Warner Music Group (WMG)—moved from litigation to licensing, from fear to strategy, and from gatekeeping to fan‑powered co‑creation.
