Ultimate Collection is a compilation album by the American singer-songwriter Aimee Mann.
Mann did not approve the release and sued the record company, Universal Music, for breach of contract.
In a statement on her website, she said that the record company, Universal Music, had refused her offer to choose tracks and provide artwork.
