So, Universal decided to offload their royalty services business to keep the EU from raising an eyebrow.

What’s next, a friendly game of musical chairs where everyone keeps their seats? 🎶

What do you think—is this a smart move for Universal or just another chapter in the corporate “let’s not get caught” handbook?
