In my case it's more like "I wonder..." fueling innovation. But I'm also too lazy to try it, but if anyone else wants to give it a go and they end up making a profit, please send me along a 5% "idea man" fee :-) On a more serious note, I wonder if this is something that Spotify already tries to detect? Or if it's such a ludicrous idea that they just assumed no one would really try it? |

You put the wrong part in scare quotes. The word you're looking for is "arbitrage," not "innovation." Some guy figured out that Spotify pays more to send data than Amazon charges to accept and discard it. Eventually Spotify will pay someone to reject this particular scam, then to reject more sophisticated versions, then to reject legitimate songs that look a bit like scams, etc. That's just how things work.
