Well, that's what UMG alleges based on a comment in a blog. If you look at http://blog.grooveshark.com it's evident they have deals with plenty of labels.

They already said Grooveshark intends to fight this battle before the Court, not in the press, so we are threading on thin assumptions here.

They have deals with lots of tiny independents. They do not have deals with the big boys. Guess whose music forms the bulk of their streams?
EMI is the world's 4th largest record label. Interestingly they are selling it to Universal, so now UMG has both a licensing deal and a lawsuit with GrooveShark...
