  Finally a subject on hn that I can shine on with random details: BMG Songs is not owned by Sony Music, but by Bertelsman and some private equity firms. It predecessor BMG Music Publishing was not part of the merger with Sony. In fact BMG Music Publishing was later sold to Universal Music Publishing. BMG Songs, the company initiating the take down, is a relatively new around the block, but largely run by ex-BMG Music Publishing guys. Their portfolio of music exists almost exclusively through buying up independent publishers (i.e. rights).
