Two Irish music collecting societies, RAAP and PPI, are involved in a legal dispute concerning data accuracy and disputed deductions.
The case, now before the Irish High Court after a journey through EU courts, originated from RAAP's lawsuit claiming PPI inappropriately deducted funds from performer payments ten years ago.
