LOS ANGELES (The Hollywood Reporter) --- Less than a month after the suit was filed, the recording industry and the music publishers have reached an out-of-court settlement with No. 1 file-swapping site Audiogalaxy.com.

Audiogalaxy also has agreed to pay the record companies and music publishers a "substantial sum" based on the companies' assets.
