Wow. Now I just need some hard drives and a way to download that without my ISP doing something about it. That's amazing.

Incredible.

They wont and shouldn’t divulge the details, but I imagine that would be a fun read!

Why is this stealing? You can already listen to everything that's on Spotify with a free account. You are free to also record the audio while it's playing. I suppose grabbing the actual file should't matter? Or is this about releasing? And robbing people of plays they would otherwise get through Spotify?
