#2Can they actually go after any of these entities? Seems like at this point it's pretty trivial to set up a website which proxies manifest files and injects DRM keys directly...

#8Question to anyone that understands the legal 'play' here: is it the thing to say that it cost them 2,000,000 paying (I assume) streams, which feels ridiculously high? And then it gets bargained down or something?
Because it seems a lot like the "you pirated my album/film instead of buying it" - whereas the reality of it is probably more like a high percentage just wouldn't have bothered - a passing interest/opportunity that piracy facilitated.
