Once known as Square, Block agreed in March 2021 to pay $306 million for an 87.5% stake in Tidal. The pension fund also said Dorsey, a co-founder of Block and Twitter, was Block's only top executive who supported the purchase, and bought Tidal because he and Jay-Z were friends. But in concluding that Block directors did not breach their fiduciary duties, McCormick said she could not "presume bad faith based on the merits of the deal alone." Jay-Z, the rapper and music mogul whose real name is Shawn Carter, joined San Francisco-based Block's board after the Tidal purchase and remains a director. The Delaware case was a derivative lawsuit that sought to have Block's directors or their insurers pay damages to the company for shareholders' benefit.

Jan 19 (Reuters) - E-commerce giant Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O) said on Thursday it will increase the prices of some of its music subscription plans from February. The price of Amazon Music's 'Unlimited Individual Plan' will go up by $1 to $10.99 per month, while its 'Unlimited Individual Student Plan' will go up to $5.99 from $4.99 per month, according to the company's FAQ page. Amazon raised its music streaming service's price for Amazon Prime members in May last year, according to a Verge report. The company raised the price of its annual U.S. Prime subscriptions by 17% in February last year, looking to offset higher costs for shipping and wages. It subsequently raised prices in Europe in July.

There's a lot going on in the Musk-Twitter universe this week, and while much remains murky, Musk's plans for generating revenue (and cutting costs) are starting to solidify. Amazon Prime members just got a new perk. Per The Verge, Prime subscribers now have access to Amazon Music's full catalog of 100 million songs — but will only be able to listen on shuffle unless they pay extra.
