MLC Sues Pandora: The Mechanical Licensing Collective (MLC) has filed a legal action against Pandora for recovery of unpaid royalties and late fees dating back to Jan. 1, 2021. “The MLC has worked closely and tirelessly with blanket licensees to ensure their compliance with the compulsory license terms," says CEO Kris Ahrend. "Our team repeatedly sought to resolve this issue directly with Pandora, but Pandora has refused to correct their reporting or royalty payments." See the full complaint here.
