Among the earnings stories for Thursday, May 8, from AP Financial News:

LOS ANGELES (AP) _ Warner Music Group Corp., whose artists include R.E.M., Madonna and Green Day, said Thursday that higher costs and a shift to digital music resulted in a wider second-quarter loss and it suspended dividends.
