Both the Audacity website as well as Muse Group's website states that Muse Group has acquired Audacity. However, hardly any details have been given. The information given on the Wikipedia page on Muse Group is also vague and questionable at best. All we have to work with is this quote from Tantacrul's video:

Audacity has just joined Muse Group, a collection of brands that includes another popular open source music app called MuseScore, which I’m currently in charge of.

This raises several important questions. To name a few:

• Is it even possible for a company to acquire a free and open source project licensed under the GPL?
• How exactly did Muse Group acquire Audacity?
• What rights and power does Muse Group legally have over the Audacity project?
• Can Muse Group even legally claim ownership over the project or do they simply own the trademarks to the name and logo?
• Who exactly is behind Muse Group; what roles do these people have?
• What are Muse Group's visions and goals for Audacity?
• How does Muse Group plan on going about putting these goals and visions into practice?
• How does Muse Group plan on handling situations where they want a new feature but the community rejects it (see PR 835)?
• Are any of the core maintainers and team members of Audacity now on the pay roll of Muse Group?
• What is the project father's and core maintainer's role and view of these events?
