Suno just announced $300 million in annual revenue and 2 million paying subscribers. The same week, a coalition of artist groups launched the “Say No to Suno” campaign calling it a “brazen smash and grab.” But here’s the number nobody’s talking about: Deezer says up to 85% of all streams on AI-generated tracks are fraudulent. They’re getting 60,000 AI tracks uploaded per day — 39% of all daily uploads. Suno alone generates 7 million tracks a day. I wrote a full breakdown of the week that might have just changed AI music forever: https://www.votemyai.com/blog/say-no-to-suno-300m-ai-music-quality.html The short version: the artists have a point about the flood of garbage. But 2 million people paying $10-30/month aren’t all spammers — a lot of them genuinely love making music. A woman from Mississippi turned her poetry into an AI track on Suno and got a $3M record deal. The real problem isn’t that AI makes too much music. It’s that there’s no good way to separate the 1% that’s actually worth hearing from the 99% that isn’t. Both sides are yelling past each other while the actual crisis — discovery and curation — goes completely unaddressed. What do you think — is the “Say No” crowd right? Or is this just the music industry’s Napster moment all over again? submitted by /u/Sensitive_Artist7460
