Celine dions teeeh

Sony Music sent letters to hundreds of tech companies and warned them against using its content without permission, according to Bloomberg, which obtained a copy of the letter.
The letter was sent to more than 700 AI companies and streaming platforms and said that “unauthorized use” of Sony Music content for AI systems denies the label and artists “control and compensation” of their work. The letter, according to Bloomberg, calls out the “training, development or commercialization of AI systems” that use copyrighted material, including music, art, and lyrics. Sony Music artists include Doja Cat, Billy Joel, Celine Dion, and Lil Nas X, among many others. Sony Music didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
The music industry has been particularly aggressive in its efforts to control how its copyrighted work is used when it comes to AI tools. On YouTube, where AI voice clones of musicians exploded last year, labels have brokered a strict set of rules that apply to the music industry (everyone else gets much looser protections). At the same time, the platform has introduced AI music tools like Dream Track, which generates songs in the style of a handful of artists based on text prompts.
Perhaps the most visible example of the fight over music copyright and AI has been on TikTok. In February, Universal Music Group pulled its entire roster of artists’ music from the platform after licensing negotiations fell apart. Viral videos fell silent as songs by artists like Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande disappeared from the platform.

Viral videos fell silent as songs by artists like Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande disappeared from the platform.
The absence, though, didn’t last long: in April, leading up to the release of her new album, Swift’s music silently returned to TikTok (gotta get that promo somehow). By early May, the stand-off had ended, and UMG artists were back on TikTok. The two companies say a deal was reached with more protections around AI and “new monetization opportunities” around e-commerce.
“TikTok and UMG will work together to ensure AI development across the music industry will protect human artistry and the economics that flow to those artists and songwriters,” a press release read.
Beyond copyright, AI-generated voice clones used to create new songs have raised questions around how much control a person has over their voice. AI companies have trained models on libraries of recordings — often without consent — and allowed the public to use the models to generate new material. But even claiming right of publicity and likeness could be challenging, given the patchwork of laws that vary state by state in the US.

Sony is cracking down on tech companies using its artists' music to train AI systems without permission.
The entertainment company is sending letters to over 700 tech firms and music streaming services, warning them against the "unauthorized use" of Sony's content for AI training.

Sony has had enough
Here are the details:

• In the letter obtained by TechCrunch, Sony states it has "reason to believe" the recipients "may already have made unauthorized uses" of its music, lyrics, artwork, and other intellectual property.
• While acknowledging AI's "significant potential," Sony says unauthorized usage deprives the company and artists of control and proper compensation.

Why are they doing this now?

• Sony's roster includes major acts like Harry Styles, Beyoncé, Adele, and Celine Dion.
• The letter demands details on which Sony songs were used for AI, how they were accessed, if copies exist, and why copies were made in the first place.
• Recipients have a deadline to respond, with Sony threatening legal action to enforce its copyrights.

Overall: The move highlights escalating concerns around GenAI and copyright infringement as AI-generated music floods streaming platforms. Even human artists like Drake have experimented with deepfaking deceased rappers' voices, drawing criticism.
Plus, lawmakers are also taking notice. Last month, a U.S. congressman introduced a bill to force AI companies to disclose what copyrighted music they use. Tennessee also recently became the first state to pass laws protecting artists against unauthorized AI replications of their work.

Yesterday I asked the younger Millennials what their most 90s song was. I spent my day not doing my actual job and tallied those votes. This is what we got.
​
45 was a convenient cut off since 5-votes section goes to 57. Who ends at 57?
It would appear that Semi-Charmed Life is unmistakably the most 90s song, followed closely by The Sign and MMMBop. The list was 314 songs deep with a lot of single mentions. It would have been longer, but there were a few single-mention songs that were so far out of left field that I knew they didn't stand a chance by the time I encountered them. By the time I stopped at was at 1041 votes/mentions. The thread is still going tho.
Something interesting was seeing a song from the beginning of the decade (1991), Smells like Teen Spirit, being right next to a song that closed out the decade (1999), Baby One More Time. On the one side you have a song that changed the musical landscape for the entire decade, then at the other end you have a song that took everything from the decade and turned it into one of the best selling singles of all time.
Further down you'll see a lot of the One-Hit-Wonders. Semisonic, New Radicals, Macarena, OMC, Len, Aqua, Marcy's Playground, Natalie Imbruglia. You would think that Chumbawumba would have been higher, but it seems you would also be wrong. They didn't quite break the top 10. These one hit wonders were absolute power houses of their time. Who else was shook when they found out Torn was a cover?
I was surprised Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie weren't mentioned.
Celine Dion only one song mentioned, even though she had several hit songs through the 90s.
Some folks threw out one hit wonders that also dominated the charts, but were seemingly forgotten to time. Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm by Crash Test Dummies was mentioned 4 times. You would think something as iconic as that song would have been higher up.
Some people had no concept of time and threw in a lot of stuff from the mid 2000s. Some people threw in stuff from the 80s. I kind of kept tabs on those, but they were all one offs, so they were irrelevant.
Anyway, I need to go home. Time to wrap this up. Thanks for everyone's input.

Finally found the Fiio FH3 which is so weird that they are kind of hard to find now....I want this collection for my 3 extremes - neutral, shine and fun combo. If you are not guessing, Top is the Sony IER-M9, left is Sennheiser IE600, and the FIIO FH3...
Being the most entry level, Fiio fh3 has the best isolation and bass out of the other 2 higher ends, while fh3 has no way to compete in terms of resolving, details and soundstage, this thing is rocks like a simple man who only loves beers, wearing this thing and forget the brain works, only jam and chill.
Go up higher price the Sennheiser ie600 is totally another manga character among them. This thing is sharp, cold, but shines on everything....if you are bass head, yep this thing sounds like a drum with 1 kick drum and 80 hi hats flashy together..For orchestral and grand songs（Celine Dion, Toni Braxton, Disneys）, this thing just shines
Well the top tier (I mean the price) is the most matured iem here, neither it is bassy or shinny, it just going everything with flat across the board. Despite being the most expensive one, it is a bit dull compare to other 2...but this thing reset your ears when you using a v shape iem too long, everytime I am out of mood, the only iem I will use is it.....just plain on everything....and yeah, really good for video editing, I can hear almost everything and able to do the correction with confident.
