X and major music publishers have quietly resolved dueling lawsuits originally filed in 2023. The settlement ends legal disputes over alleged widespread copyright infringement on the platform.
The original lawsuit, filed by music publishers against X (formerly Twitter), claimed the platform hosted thousands of cases of copyright infringement. X had countersued, leading to competing legal claims between the company and the publishing industry.
Terms of the settlement remain undisclosed. Neither X nor the music publishers have released details about financial arrangements or new licensing agreements that may have resulted from the settlement.
The resolution comes as X continues navigating complex relationships with content creators and rights holders. The platform has faced ongoing challenges balancing user-generated content with intellectual property protections since Elon Musk's acquisition in 2022.
This settlement follows similar disputes between social media platforms and music publishers over copyright compliance and licensing fees.
