Music lovers everywhere breathed a sigh of relief as the music videos from beloved artists like Adele, Nirvana, and Green Day made their triumphant return to YouTube. The brief absence, however, wasn't due to any fault of the artists themselves, but rather a licensing agreement dispute between YouTube and SESAC, the organization representing the copyright of many musicians.

In an email to The Verge, Scott Jungmichel, COO of SESAC, expressed their satisfaction with the agreement, stating, “We’re pleased to be able to fairly compensate songwriters and publishers represented by SESAC for the use of their music.”
