Music represented by the Italian Society of Authors and Publishers (SIAE) is returning to Meta-owned platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp following a new agreement signed with the technology giant. The deal is seen as a victory for SIAE, the main collecting society for tens of thousands of songwriters in Italy. The move comes after a temporary suspension of SIAE’s music on Meta’s platforms due to the parties’ failure to renew a licensing deal earlier this year.
