The court rejected Grande’s arguments that the provider should not be held responsible for its customers’ illegal activities, saying the company “knowingly provided the means for copyright infringement.”
However, the decision to take back $47 million was overturned. The court ruled that the original compensation calculation based on individual songs was incorrect. Instead, damages should be calculated on an album-by-album basis, not on an individual song basis.
A new trial is now needed to determine the amount of compensation.
