Sony’s New Lawsuit Comes With a Very Long Song List

Sony Music Entertainment filed another federal lawsuit against AI music company Udio on July 20, 2026. This time, Sony’s complaint concerns more than 30,000 sound recordings that it claims were copied and used in connection with Udio’s generative AI models without permission.

That is an enormous number of recordings. It is large enough to make the average independent artist stare at their own hard drive, notice three folders named “Old Masters,” and quietly close the laptop.

Sony had previously attempted to add 30,442 recordings to the lawsuit it originally brought against Udio in 2024. On July 2, 2026, U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein denied that request, leaving the earlier case focused on 333 works that remained in the original action. Sony responded by filing a separate lawsuit covering the additional recordings.

Sony says it found the additional works after gaining access to information about Udio’s training data during legal discovery. According to Sony’s allegations, it then used audio-fingerprinting technology to compare that information with recordings in its catalog.

Those words matter: according to Sony’s allegations.
