Rights Group Sues Suno as AI Music Showdown Escalates

The battle over AI-generated music just hit a new high. Danish rights organisation KODA has filed a lawsuit against AI music startup Suno in the Copenhagen City Court, accusing the company of training its models using copyrighted tracks from Danish artists without consent.

KODA represents over 52,000 songwriters, composers and publishers, and claims Suno’s tools analysed audio from artists like MØ, Aqua and Christopher — all allegedly ripped (via methods including YouTube stream-ripping and lyrics scraping) and fed into Suno’s generative system for commercial use.

The complaint describes the situation as “the biggest theft in music history,” warning that this kind of unchecked AI usage threatens the creative livelihoods of artists. CEO Gorm Arildsen stated that “innovation can’t be built on stolen goods.”

Meanwhile, Suno is reportedly aiming for a valuation of $2 billion while pulling in over $100 million in annual recurring revenue — all as legal pressure builds.

This case represents one of the most critical flashpoints at the intersection of electronic music, technology and copyright — and it raises urgent questions: Can AI creation tools respect artist rights? Will generative systems sink or sustain the future of dance and electronic music?
