Amazing talk from Peter Filimore, an Australia security researcher, investigating hacking streaming services like Rdio and Spotify to make his test albums #1 and also get royalties. Amazing how little security checks there are…and how funny the ‘music’ and albums he put up there was, and some of the responses to his ‘Troll Music’
Also a good primer on how to get your music out there on these services…but also a reminder that to treat ‘plays’ as with ‘likes’ very sceptically. (via SC magazine)
