The battle is on between the music industry and social media as record companies fight for their rights and for their profit margins. EMI Music Publishing has just filed a lawsuit against Escape Media Group, the parent company of the music streaming service Grooveshark. The New York Times reports that the company is citing breach of contract, claiming that Escape has not “made not a single royalty payment to EMI, nor provided a single accounting statement” since signing the deal in 2009.
