Suno announced a global partnership with Believe and its self-release platform TuneCore. Believe will take part in the new music models Suno is building with the music industry. Tracks made with Suno's industry partner model will become eligible for distribution through both services. Suno and Believe also plan joint product experiences that artists can opt into. Believe and TuneCore had earlier refused to distribute music from models that failed their standards, including Suno's. Suno says talks over several months resolved that dispute. The deal follows Suno's existing arrangements with Warner Music Group and BMG. Suno recently added audio watermarking, fingerprinting and download limits, and says these will apply to music distributed via Believe. The new models have not launched, with Suno saying only that they are coming soon.
