Jake P. Noch, CEO of Pro Music Rights said:
"Each of the music streaming services sued has made a business decision to use music without compensating songwriters. By filing these actions, Pro Music Rights is standing up for songwriters whose creative works bring great value to all streaming services who publicly perform their music," JakeP. Noch said "Pro Music Rights will not give up the fight, no matter how long it wages."
