A copyright dispute between Global Music Rights and Music Choice has been resolved through settlement after GMR alleged the music service continued playing compositions from its catalog without authorization following the expiration of their licensing agreement in late 2025. The lawsuit, filed in June, targeted 95 works and demanded potential damages reaching $14.25 million. The settlement was finalized in early August with each party responsible for its own legal expenses, though specific financial terms and any new licensing arrangements remain undisclosed.

This resolution represents another successful outcome for GMR's enforcement efforts, marking the fifth copyright infringement case the rights organization has pursued since late 2022. None of the previous disputes have proceeded to trial, with each settlement eventually providing resolution without public disclosure of financial arrangements. The pattern suggests GMR's willingness to pursue litigation when licensing agreements lapse, though settlements consistently conclude disputes before reaching court judgment.
