NetEase's Cloud Music Prosecutes Tencent Music

  • NetEase, Inc's NTES Cloud Music unit prosecuted Tencent Music Entertainment Group TME for alleged unfair competition and plagiarizing its app design, Reuters reports.
  • Features of TME's suite of music streaming apps allowed its users to bypass copyright protection and play songs licensed by NetEase Cloud Music.
  • "We urge TME to immediately rectify its products and businesses and stop all behaviours of unfair competition," NetEase Cloud Music said.
  • In 2021, regulators charged Tencent with a penalty on anti-trust grounds and prohibited it from signing exclusive music copyright pacts, prompting it to end all such deals.
