Backstreet Boys have finally won the long going legal battle and have successfully claimed the rights to the master recording of one of their biggest songs.

The American vocal group had said that they were owed nearly 3.5 million dollars, while ex-manager Lou Pearlman's bankruptcy estate trustee said that they no proof to back their claims.

But after the boy band managed to do that, they would now be getting 99,000 dollars, as well as possession of some master recordings including 'I'll Never Break Your Heart', and a few lesser known songs and live recordings.
