Eminem attacks in the meta in court. The American rapper, through his musical publisher eight Mile Style, accuses the giant of the technology owner of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp for violation of copyright.
According to a complaint filed before a court in Michigan and transmitted by the people of the US media, eight miles of style states that Meta used 243 songs in the Eminem catalog on its various plates.
According to the editorial company, these titles were used without agreement in millions of videos and transmitted billions of times, particularly through the original reels and audio functions.
More than $ 109 million in damages
Contacted by people, the Meta spokesman, however, defended himself explaining that “he negotiated with good faith” with an eight -mile style to be able to use the Eminem catalog, but that the company “chose to sue instead of following these discussions.”
In his complaint, the style of eight miles of the company specifies that Meta would have tried to acquire the rights of the rapper’s songs, but that Mark Zuckerberg faced a rejection. The style of eight miles ensures that Meta would have eliminated the songs in question, but before “reproducing and storing unauthorized copies without copyright.”
Through Dedommant, Eminem and its equipment demand target $ 150,000 in damage per piece in question, or more than $ 109 million.
