"A musician and lawyer has used an algorithm to generate every possible melody in an attempt to end music copyright lawsuit claims.
Working with programmer Noah Rubin, Damien Riehl built software capable of generating 300,000 melodies each second, creating a catalogue of 68 billion 8-note melodies.
The melodies were then copyrighted and released into the public domain in the hope of stifling litigious musicians."
