Data delivery services (music) - metadata harvested

This might not be the best place to ask, but has anyone got any experience looking at data delivery services (i.e. for Spotify/iTunes) and how metadata is harvested by malicious agents?

 

I've noticed that a lot of websites offer free music on non-official looking sites, and I was wondering how metadata is harvested from official delivery systems and how much the music industry had looked into this... I would have thought a lot of end users wouldn't really think too hard about it thus increasing potential malware infections.

 

Maybe one of you might know the best place to start looking at this. 🙂

Exploring data delivery services for music metadata and malicious agents' actions raises concerns. Websites offering free music may pose malware risks. Further research on industry efforts is crucial for awareness and prevention.
