Live-Music Heritage: The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is naming West Hollywood’s Troubadour a music landmark, recognizing the venue’s history as a launchpad for major artists. Radio: Garth Brooks’ company bought Nashville station Lightning 100 for $3 million and plans to reshape it as country-focused “The New FM 100.” AI & Rights: A lawsuit accuses a generative-AI company of illegally profiting from Elvis Presley’s music, while Japan has launched an initiative to protect music and other creative works from unauthorized AI use.
