Weird, I wasn't aware that Spotify OWNED this music. I'm fairly certain they they only license it.

I guess if I were an artist I'd look at this and feel justified suing Spotify for 1 billion dollars for the lack of protection of my music.

I assume any contracts detailing the guarantees of Spotify's DRM are clear that it's not Fail-Safe.

A hole that allowed people to download songs and one that allowed someone to download the entire collection are two different things.

I assume they were literally the same mechanism, but AA just did it distributed across many accounts.
